Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and carrots and cook until softened, 3 to 4 min. Stir in the garlic, cumin, turmeric and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the broth and lentils. Cover and simmer until the lentils are tender, about 40 min.

Divide the soup into 4 bowls. Squeeze lemon juice on top and garnish with yogourt, green onion and pepper.
