INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 2 cups dry red lentils
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 3 tablespoons vegetable bouillon
    • 🧅 2 white onions, minced
    • 🧄 ½ bulb garlic, minced
    • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
    • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
    • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
    • 1 teaspoon curry powder
    • 2 (32 fluid ounce) containers vegetable broth
    • 1 bunch Swiss chard

STEPS

1

Soak lentils in a bowl with water to cover for 15 minutes.

2

Heat olive oil and bouillon in a stockpot over medium heat. Add onions; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes.

3

Stir garlic, coriander, cumin, turmeric, and curry powder into onion mixture. Cook and stir until onion is tender and browned, adding a few spoonfuls of vegetable broth if needed to prevent burning, about 10 minutes more.

4

Drain lentils and stir into onion mixture with remaining broth; bring soup to a boil. Cover stockpot, reduce heat, and simmer until lentils are soft, 30 to 45 minutes.

5

Trim chard leaves, stack together, and cut into 3/4-inch strips. Stir chard into soup and cook until softened, about 10 minutes more.
