1
tablespoon olive oil
1
medium onion, chopped,
about 1 cup
1
medium carrot, cut into ¼-inch
dice, about 1 cup
2
cloves garlic, thinly sliced
½
bay leaf
1
pound dried brown lentils
5
cups chicken broth
teaspoons kosher salt
¼
teaspoon ground black pepper
½
teaspoon lemon juice
Place oil in the cooking pot of the Cuisinart
Electric Pressure Cooker. Select Sauté. Allow
oil to heat for a few minutes and then stir the
chopped onion into the pot. Sauté for about
1 to  minutes, until onion starts to soften.
Stir in the carrot. Sauté vegetables for about
4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and
slightly golden. Stir in garlic and sauté for
another minute or two, until garlic becomes
aromatic.
Add bay leaf, lentils, and chicken broth to
the cooking pot. Lock lid in place. Select
High Pressure. Set timer for 8 minutes. When
audible beep sounds use Natural Pressure
Release to release pressure. When float valve
drops, remove lid carefully, tilting away from
you to allow steam to disperse.
Remove and discard bay leaf. Stir in salt,
pepper, and lemon juice. Taste and adjust
seasonings accordingly. Serve immediately.
Note: Vary the soup by adding chopped
fresh spinach or serve with freshly grated
Parmesan cheese.
