Rinse the red lentils under cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside.
Peel and finely dice the onion. Peel and chop the carrot into small pieces. Thinly slice the celery stalk.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sautee for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables start to soften.
Add the rinsed red lentils to the pot and stir well with the vegetables.
Pour in the 1 liter of vegetable stock. Stir in the salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes until the lentils are cooked and the soup has thickened.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If the soup is too thick, you can add a little bit more water to reach the desired consistency.
Serve the soup hot in bowls with one wholegrain roll on the side for each serving.
