Instructions

1. Wash and rinse the beans thoroughly under running water. Put InstantPot in saute mode. Add oil when HOT is displayed. Add the onions, carrots, and celery to the pot and stir. Sprinkle some salt. Saute the vegetables for about 5 minutes, until they are slightly softened and translucent.
2. Add garlic, all-purpose seasoning, paprika, and rosemary to the pot. Stir and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the washed lentils to the pot and mix. Add the vegetable stock or water to the pot and stir once more. Cancel the saute mode. Close the lid. Choose BEAN mode or choose 30 minutes of High Pressure and let InstantPot do its magic!
3. When the timer switches to heat, wait 10 minutes after cooking and then release the pressure. Open the lid.
4. Put 1/4 of the soup in an upright blender. Allow to cool before mixing. (You can mix the soup several times in the pot by using a lance blender.) Add some lemon juice to the blender.
5. Carefully increase the speed of the blender to high and blend until this part of the soup is completely liquefied. Pour this liquefied portion back into the pot. Season the soup with salt and pepper.
6. Put the Instant Pot back into Saute mode. Add baby spinach to the pot and let the soup simmer. When spinach is slightly wilted and bright green. Drizzle lemon juice and cayenne pepper on top, adjust salt and pepper if needed. Cancel the saute operation. Your delicious soup is ready. Enjoy this bowl of creamy hot goodness!
