Comment préparer Alton Brown's Lentil Soup

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 medium carrot (chopped), and 2 celery stalks (chopped). Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Add 6 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth for a richer flavor), 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 cup brown or green lentils (rinsed), 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 35-45 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.
If desired, carefully transfer about 1/3 of the soup to a blender and blend until smooth. Return the blended portion to the pot and stir to combine. This creates a creamier texture.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and fresh herbs (such as parsley or chives), if desired, before serving.
