I make this simple purple lentil soup recipe at the very least as soon as per week for my household – should you comply with my tales on Instagram, you’re in all probability sick of my weekly soup night time, sorry. I simply can’t resist it – it’s really easy to make (solely 5 components!!). It’s additionally a terrific fridge clearer, as you possibly can throw in no matter greens you may have within the fridge, and it at all times seems superbly. So wealthy and creamy!
This purple lentil soup is a very budget-friendly meal – plus, it’s a simple technique to serve my children greens that they wouldn’t eat of their non-blended type (i.e. most greens). When it’s all blended up collectively, the soup is clean, creamy, and actually tasty. We adore it served with a dollop of Greek yogurt on high, and a few garlic bread on the aspect for dipping!
Substances and Substitutions
Right here’s what you’ll must make this recipe. See the printable recipe card under for detailed ingredient portions.
- purple lentils – It’s essential use the purple ones. Brown and inexperienced lentils gained’t work as nicely on this soup, as they don’t turn out to be as comfortable and creamy as purple.
- greens – I used a few carrots and a bell pepper. I typically add completely different veggies, relying on what I’ve within the fridge. I attempt to use pretty low cost greens for soup, like broccoli, carrots, or tomatoes – it appears a waste to mix up something too costly (until it’s in dire want of getting used!).
- vegetable inventory – I exploit a inventory dice, crumbled into the soup with some water. When you desire to make use of liquid inventory, you need to use that as an alternative of the equal quantity of water (for instance, the recipe calls for six cups of water, so when you’ve got 4 cups of liquid vegetable broth, use that, plus a further 2 cups of water).
- purple pesto – That is my favorite means so as to add tons of flavour to my lentil soup! You might simply change this for a dollop of curry paste, tomato sauce, or some dried herbs or spices (maybe cumin or paprika) to provide the soup a special vibe.
Optionally available garnishes:
- a dollop of Greek yogurt (I at all times add this for my children, because it helps to chill the soup down!)
- grated cheese
- extra purple pesto (which seems to be so fairly)
- contemporary herbs (contemporary parsley, chives or basil could be tasty)
Becca’s High Tip
I normally pre-boil the water in my electrical kettle earlier than pouring it into my saucepan, simply to hurry issues alongside a bit. When you don’t have an electrical kettle, you possibly can simply use chilly water, however the soup will take a bit longer to return to a simmer.

Tools
Soup is at all times best to mix with a hand blender (immersion blender) – it means you don’t want to fret about transferring a sizzling pan of soup right into a tabletop blender, which will be fairly terrifying. An immersion blender simply goes straight into the saucepan, which is faster, simpler, and far safer.
My hand blender is nothing fancy, nevertheless it does the job completely. I’ve by no means discovered the costly ones to be any higher than a normal, low cost mannequin. This one on Amazon US / Amazon UK (affiliate hyperlinks) seems to be good, comes at a terrific worth, and has actually spectacular critiques.

However should you discover you generally get abdomen pains after consuming lentils, strive skimming off the froth to assist cut back gasoline). Add the purple pesto.

Recipe FAQs
Completely! The one ingredient which may not be vegan is the purple pesto, however should you use a dairy-free pesto, it’s completely vegan.
We love this soup served with garlic bread for dipping. When you don’t fancy garlic bread, I additionally generally use crunchy croutons, strips of flatbread, and even simply toast!
Any leftovers will be cooled and saved in an hermetic container within the fridge for as much as 3 days. It can be saved within the freezer for as much as 3 months, and reheated completely earlier than serving.
Leftover soup will be reheated within the microwave or on the stovetop. If utilizing the microwave, be certain the soup is in a microwaveable tub or bowl, with a loosened lid. Microwave completely till piping sizzling, stirring a couple of times to make sure it heats evenly. If utilizing the stovetop, switch the soup to a pan, and warmth gently over a low warmth, till piping sizzling. You might want so as to add an additional splash of water if the soup has thickened up quite a bit.
If I’ve a portion of soup left over, which isn’t sufficient to make one other entire meal, I’ll normally use it as pasta sauce! Simply stir it by way of your favorite pasta form (I really like mafalde or farfalle), add some veggies, and also you’ve made an entire new meal – lentil soup turns into lentil pasta.
