simple and heavenly delicious

Wash the lentils, peel the potatoes and carrots, and roughly chop them. Peel the onion and roughly chop them. Place all the ingredients in a pot, add the water, and bring to a boil, then simmer over medium heat for about 25 minutes. The potatoes and carrots should be cooked through. Purée the soup with a hand blender, add the butter and salt, and bring back to a boil briefly. Remove the soup from the heat and serve immediately. Season to taste with a few drops of lemon juice and a grind of pepper, if desired. Tip: The soup will thicken slightly after cooling; simply add a little water the next time you reheat it.
