Lentil Soup
RECIPE COURTESY OF GIADA DE LAURENTIIS
Level: Easy
Total: 1 hr 10 min
Prep: 10 min
Cook: 1 hr
Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
1 medium onion, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 pound lentils (approximately 1 1/4 cups)
11 cups low-salt chicken broth
4 to 6 fresh thyme sprigs
2/3 cup dried elbow pasta
1 cup shredded Parmesan

Directions

Heat the oil in a heavy large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Add the garlic, salt, and pepper and saute until all the vegetables are tender, about 5 to 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juices. Simmer until the juices evaporate a little and the tomatoes break down, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Add the lentils and mix to coat. Add the broth and stir. Add the thyme sprigs. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and simmer over low heat until the lentils are almost tender, about 30 minutes.

Stir in the pasta. Simmer until the pasta is tender but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Ladle the soup into bowls. Sprinkle with the Parmesan, drizzle with olive oil, and serve.

    Make sure to rinse and clean lentils. They are packaged and I have noticed that they are like rice. Need to get rid debris.

    I noticed that the lentils were not rinsed & checked before cooking – is it no longer necessary to do so?

    Did you place lentil in pot without washing before?

  21. @edc7423

    December 26, 2023 at 11:21 pm

    I disagree use only one container of broth and the rest is water, instead of thyme use 2 bayleaves

    IS A COOKING SHOW, DON’T NEED TO SHOW YOUR BREAST 😝😝😝😝😝😝

    Giada your math is incorrect . 1.25 cup of lentils weighs 6.77 ounces. 1 cup of lentils = 2.5 cups cooked lentils. You should tell people how to portion out a 16 oz bag of dry lentils = 6 US cups cooked to feed a certain number of people . IE 16 oz bag dry lentils will yield 10-12 servings depending on the size of the serving. Ciao bella

    All her recipes are so simple, which is perfect for simple minded Americans. I would never make this. It's so NOT Italian. Nice cleavage Giada. (What is it your selling exactly?)
