Ingredients

Herby Mushroom & Puy Lentil Soup

  • 1 dsp coconut oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 250g mushrooms, roughly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 leeks, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Puy lentils

Tip..

Don't over-blitz this soup or you'll end up with grey sludge!

How to make Herby Mushroom & Puy Lentil Soup

1. Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan.

2. Add the onion and cook until translucent. Add the mushrooms and cook for a few minutes until they start to colour.

3. Add the garlic cloves and leeks and cook for a few minutes until the leek starts to soften.

4. Add the Puy lentils, bay leaf, thyme, dried mushrooms and stock. Bring to the boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the lentils are cooked.

5. Remove the bay leaves and stalks of the herbs. Add the fresh parsley, season well and pulse in your blender for a few seconds until roughly blitzed. It's best to leave this soup a little chunky, with the lentils intact.
