Lentil Sweet Potato Carrot Soup
Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 1 apple, peeled, cored and chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup red lentils
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
Instructions
1
Heat a substantial, heat-diffusing pot over a moderate to high flame. Introduce diced sweet potatoes, carrots, sliced apple, and chopped onion into the pot; stir constantly until the onion becomes translucent, approximately 10 minutes.
2
Combine cooked lentils, salt, minced ginger, black pepper, ground cumin, chili powder, and paprika in the pot; then add broth. Elevate the heat to its highest level and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Decrease the heat to a low flame, cover the pot, and let it simmer until both lentils and vegetables are tender, roughly 30 minutes.
3
Blend the soup using an immersion blender until it reaches a uniform consistency. Raise the heat to its highest level and cook until the soup is simmering, around 10 minutes. Add water as necessary to achieve your desired level of thinness in the soup.
