Souper du Nouvel An Ingredients

Method

Souper du Nouvel An Directions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Broth

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Pour in the vegetable broth, then add the diced tomatoes, lentils, bay leaves, thyme, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Soup

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 30-35 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.

  4. 4

    Add Fresh Parsley

    Once the soup is cooked, remove the bay leaves. Stir in the fresh parsley and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot, optionally garnished with more parsley.
