Step 1

Turn on stove to medium high heat before adding olive oil.

Step 2

Wait for oil to get hot and add the onions, and stir until Transparent, about 8-15 minutes. Continually stir to make sure the onions don’t burn.

Step 3

Once onions have softened, add spices, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, while stirring.

Step 4

Add the diced tomatoes , celery leaves and chopped cilantro. If ingredients seem too dry, add a bit of water to avoid from sticking.

Step 5

Cook for 5-8 minutes, then add the chickpeas and lentils, along with the water/broth. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and cover to cook.

Step 6

Stir every 15-20 minutes to avoid from sticking, and add salt to taste. After the soup has cooked for an hour, it is ready to serve and enjoy. :)
