Preparation
Step 1
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they're translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the carrots and celery and cook for a few more minutes.
Add the lentils, water, thyme and bay leaf. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are soft and the soup has thickened, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
