- Fill the pot with water, enough to cover the lentils and veggies. Simmer until the lentils are fluffy and the veggies are softened
- Take off the heat and allow a few minutes to cool, then using either a hand blender or a food processor, puree the mixture, and use a sieve to strain the mixture from clumps.
