Method
- Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or heavy soup pot over medium heat.
- Add the onion and a pinch of salt and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes.
- Add the carrots, celery, delicata squash, and another pinch of salt and sauté until all of the vegetables are just tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add the curry powder, cumin, turmeric, coriander, cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and red pepper flakes and give a stir.
- Add the lentils and stir to coat. Pour in 1/2 cup of the broth to deglaze the pot, stirring to loosen any bits stuck to the pot, and cook until the liquid is reduced by half.
- Add the rest of the broth. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil.
- Decrease the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the lentils are tender, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- Taste; you may want to add a pinch of salt. Stir in the kale and cook until it’s tender, about 3 minutes.
