Directions

1.  Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium–high heat. Add onions, celery, carrots, and garlic; sauté until vegetables begin to brown, about 15 minutes. Add 4 cups broth, lentils, and tomatoes with juice and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium–low, add fresh thyme, cover, and simmer until lentils are tender, about 35 minutes.

2.  Transfer 2 cups soup (mostly solids) to blender and purée until smooth. Return purée to soup in pan; thin soup with more broth (a quarter cup at a time) if too thick. Season with salt, pepper, and a splash of vinegar, if desired. Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with celery leaves.
