Zubereitung von Armenian Apricot Soup
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and diced carrots and sauté for about 10 minutes, until softened.
- Stir in the ground cumin and cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and let the vegetables sweat for 10 minutes.
- Add the rinsed lentils and 4 cups of water (or enough to cover the lentils by about an inch).
- Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 20 minutes, or until the lentils and carrots are tender, adding more water if necessary to prevent sticking.
- Remove from heat and stir in the chopped dried apricots. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the apricots to soften.
- Carefully use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, working in batches, puree in a regular blender until smooth.
- Season with salt to taste. Remember, a little salt goes a long way; start with a small amount and add more as needed to enhance the apricot flavor without overpowering the onions.
- Serve hot. Garnish with fresh parsley or a dollop of plain yogurt, if desired.
