Ingredients

200 g lentils (brown champagne lentils)
300 g potato(es)
100 g carrot(s)
100 g celeriac
100 g leek
500 ml vegetable broth
500 ml beef broth
1 tbsp butter

Parsley (flat-leaf or chives)

Instructions

1. Cut carrots, celery, and leek into very small cubes. Cut the potatoes into small cubes as well, no thicker than 5 millimeters.
2. Rinse the lentils and let them drain. Then simmer them in the vegetable broth for 30 minutes over low heat.
3. Melt the butter in a second pot and briefly sauté the vegetables along with the potatoes. Deglaze everything with the beef broth and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. Add the lentils, stir everything well, and season to taste with vinegar.
4. Finely chop the parsley or chives and sprinkle them over the finished soup in the bowls as a garnish.
5. This is a light version that is perfect for starting the week, especially if you ate a lot of meat over the weekend.
6. For a heartier and more calorie-rich version, you can add finely chopped pork belly or smoked pork neck to the soup.
