In this video, I’ll show you how to create a nourishing and flavorful Lentil Soup using the Instant Pot. This one-pot wonder is not only delicious but also perfect for a quick and wholesome meal.

**Ingredients:**
– 1 tbsp olive oil
– 1 onion, chopped
– ½ tsp smoked paprika
– 4 medium carrots, coarsely grated
– 1 cup dried red lentils, uncooked
– 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
– 1 tsp ground cumin
– ½ cup milk
– Salt and pepper to taste

**Instructions:**
1. Set your Instant Pot to “Sauté” mode. Heat olive oil and add chopped onion. Sauté until translucent.
2. Sprinkle smoked paprika over the onions and sauté for an additional minute.
3. Add diced carrots and stir well. Let them cook for a few minutes.
4. Add dried red lentils to the Instant Pot. Stir to combine for 2 minutes.
5. Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth and add 1 tsp ground cumin. Give everything a good mix.
6. Cancel the “Sauté” mode. Close the Instant Pot lid, ensuring the vent is in the sealing position.
7. Set the Instant Pot to “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” mode on high pressure. Adjust the timer to 10 minutes.
8. Once the cooking time is complete, carefully release pressure by switching the vent to the “Venting” position to release pressure.
9. Open the Instant Pot lid and use an immersion blender to blend the soup.
10. Stir in milk (or dairy-free alternative) to add creaminess. Season with salt to taste.
11. Serve the lentil soup hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil.
