Method

In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium. Add the onions and sauté for 2 minutes or until fragrant. Stir in the potatoes, carrots and celery and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the garlic and black pepper. Pour in the vegetable broth, increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Once boiling reduce heat to medium-low, simmer with lid on for 10 minutes, until potato is tender. Stir in the lentils and let simmer for 5 minutes.
