Soothing Gut-Healing Soup
Ingredients
- 200g lentils (or one can, drained and washed)
- 1 avocado
- 1 large sweet potato
- 1 large handful of spinach
- 2 carrots
- 1 red bell pepper (capsisum)
- 2 tbsp chopped dill
- 1 handful of cashews (roughly chopped)
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 1 brown onion
- 200ml yeast-free, MSG-free vegetable stock
- 1 tbsp coconut oilInstructions
Directions
- Prepare the lentils, if dried and set aside.
- This takes the longest!
- Next, roughly chop the onion and garlic and warm gently in a very large saucepan with the coconut oil
- While these are browning and flavouring up, chop the peel and chop the sweet potato and carrots roughly, and once chopped, add to the pan and get it all mixed together and coated in oil.
- Stir for about 2 minutes to start to warm the root veg and get the flavours of the garlic and onion onto and into them
- Now add the vegetable stock, and simmer for 10 minutes, until the vegetables are just warmed through but not overcooked – we want to maintain as much of the nutrients as possible.
- Add the lentils in now for the last five minutes to get these warmed through too
- Next, transfer to a blender or food processor (do in batches if your blender isn’t big enough to do all of this at once) and add in the avocado, capsicum (roughly chopped and deseeded), spinach and dill.
- Keep just a few sprigs of dill back if you want to garnish.
- Blend until smooth and serve with those sprigs of dill, sprinkle with the chopped cashews and drizzle with a little olive oil at the end.
