1 hour
About 8 cups
2 cups uncooked lentils
8 cups water or vegetable stock
1/2 onion, chopped
1 small carrot, chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped
1 small potato
2 bay leaves
1-1/2 to 2 teaspoons sea salt
2 teaspoons vinegar (I use apple cider)
Mix all ingredients, except the vinegar, in a soup pot and cook until the lentils are very soft, about one hour. Add vinegar at the end and serve.
