Total time: 30 MINS
INGReDIeNTS:
- 4 tablespoons butter (or olive oil)
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 large carrot, diced
- 1 3/4 cups yellow lentils (or 1 1/2 cups yellow split peas)
- 1 lb. russet potatoes, diced
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 5-6 1/2 cups of broth (vegetable or chicken)*
- 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
- cayenne pepper
- salt, to taste
- lemon wedges, parsley, etc. for topping
DIReCTIoNS:
1. SaUTe: Heat 2 tablespoons of butter or olive oil in the instant pot on the saute setting. add the onions and carrots and saute until the onions just barely start to brown, about 9-10 minutes. add the potatoes, lentils, tomato paste, 5 cups of broth, turmeric, and if desired, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Cover the Instant Pot, hit the bean/chili button and adjust the pressure time. 10 minutes for yellow lentils, 13-15 minutes or split peas depending on how old they are. once the timer goes off, turn the knob to vent.
2. BLeND: Using a hand blender or by transferring the soup to a traditional blender, blend the soup completely. You may need additional broth to thin the soup out. I ended up using 1 additional cup to blend/thin soup to my liking. But note that the soup will thicken as it sits, to make sure you have a little extra broth or add water.
3. adjust salt to taste and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. You can also add additional cayenne if you prefer spicier soups. Feel free to..........??????????????????????????
