LENTIL SOUP WITH MUSTARD GREENS

RECIPES
TIME TO MAKE:

1 HR

With a cold and possibly sedentary winter well on its way, expanding your horizons with a hearty vegetable soup is a must, especially if you’ve spent this past year mastering the art of homemade sourdough bread! 

Adapted from Alex Lau’s Bon Appetit recipe, this delicious lentil soup is packed with sausage, root vegetables and mustard greens – rich in immune-boosting vitamins such as A, C and K. 

If you are vegetarian, swapping the sausage with tempeh, a rich and nutty flavoured fermented meat alternative, will complement this hearty soup’s earthy qualities.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and ground pepper
  • 3 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 marjoram sprigs
  • 2 mustard leaves (chopped)
  • 8 to 10 ounces of cremini mushrooms
  • 3 carrots (chopped)

DIRECTIONS
