Steps:

  • Place the olive oil into a large 6-quart Dutch oven and set over medium heat. Once hot, add the onion, carrot, celery and salt and sweat until the onions are translucent, approximately 6 to 7 minutes. Add the lentils, tomatoes, broth, coriander, cumin and grains of paradise and stir to combine. Increase the heat to high and bring just to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook at a low simmer until the lentils are tender, approximately 35 to 40 minutes. Using a stick blender, puree to your preferred consistency. Serve immediately.

I've never made lentil soup before, but this recipe was so easy to follow. The soup turned out great and my family loved it. I'll definitely be making this again.

I was disappointed with this soup. The lentils were overcooked and the broth was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a little too much paprika. Other than that, it was a great soup. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less paprika next time.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover lentils. I had some lentils leftover from another recipe, and I decided to make this soup. It was so easy and delicious.

I made a few substitutions to the recipe, but the soup still turned out great. I used brown lentils instead of green lentils, and I added some chopped carrots and celery.

This lentil soup was a hit with my family! The addition of sweet potatoes and spinach gave it a nice twist on the classic recipe. I also loved the smoky flavor from the paprika.
