Leon's mom's lentil soup

Chop all the ingredients. It’s okay if you don’t have all of them.

• 2 leeks
• 3 small onions
• 1 root celery (can be hard to find in the US but adds a nice brothy flavor)
• 4 large carrots
• 5 large potatoes
• half or whole cabbage

Boil in the following:

• Boil brown lentils for 25 minutes in 3 liters of water without any salt or spices (lentils soften faster without salt and spices).
• Then, add vegetables and other ingredients. Cook for another 20-25 minutes.
• Now you can add seasoning.

Seasoning can be things like:

• Bullion cubes
• Salt
• Ground black pepper
