Preparation

Step 1

1. In a Dutch oven or large pot, brown bacon over medium heat until crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes. Pour off remaining fat, leaving 45-60 mL (3-4 tablespoons).

2. Add onion and carrots and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in tomato paste and cook
for one more minute.

3. Add lentils, thyme, broth and water and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until lentils are tender, about 30-45 minutes. If soup thickens too
much, add more water.

4. Stir in vinegar, salt and pepper.
