Preparation
Step 1
In a large pot, heat the olive oil. Add the garlic, celery, carrots and onion and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, approximately 7 minutes. Add the tomatoes, lentils, ham hock or smoked turkey, and 2 quarts of water and bring to a boil. Cover partially and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are very tender, approximately 1 hour. Add the potatoes and simmer until tender, 10 minutes.
Remove the ham hock or turkey wing/thigh (can pick the meat from the bones and add back to the soup). Add the parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Serve with Parmesan cheese.
Serves 4-6.
