Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and 3 cloves of minced garlic, stirring occasionally until the onion is translucent and lightly browned.

Step 2

Add the water, lentils, and 1 teaspoon salt to the pot and bring to a boil. Cover partially and continue to boil over medium heat until the lentils are barely tender, about 20 minutes.

Step 3

Add the chard and potatoes to the pot and bring the mixture back to a gentle boil. (If you feel that your soup is too thick, you can add a little more water, but the soup is meant to be thick!). Simmer uncovered for ~20 minutes, until the potatoes are fully cooked through and the soup is thickened.

Step 4

Remove the pot from the heat and add the lemon juice and 1 clove of mashed garlic, plus additional salt and pepper to taste. Taste the soup and adjust seasonings, such as adding more salt and pepper or more lemon juice.

Step 5

Ladle into bowls and add any optional garnishes, including red pepper flakes, parsley, and/or a wedge of lemon.
