  1. 1
    Heat olive oil in a large pot. Sauté onion and carrots over medium heat for 5 minutes until translucent.
  2. 2
    Add garlic, cumin, paprika, and turmeric, sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. 3
    Stir in lentils and potatoes. Pour in broth, bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes until everything is soft.
  4. 4
    Puree completely with an immersion blender. Check consistency — add more broth if needed. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

Pro Tips

  • Mercimek Çorbası is as simple as it is satisfying — the secret lies in the sumac butter that brings everything together.
  • Stir cannabis olive oil into butter at under 160°F (70°C) — above that THC begins to break down.
  • Red lentils need no soaking and are ready in 20 minutes — ideal for spontaneous cooking.
  • Sumac provides the characteristic tang — if you don't have it: add lemon juice directly to the soup.
