Directions
Heat oil in a large stockpot over medium-low.
Add onions and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until they're beginning to caramelize - about 15 minutes.
Increase heat to medium and add celery, carrots, garlic and ginger.
Saute 5-6 minutes, until vegetables are beginning to colour and soften.
Stir in all the spices and mix to coat the vegetables well. Cook 1 minute, until fragrant.
Pour in stock and water, stir well and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and add nutritional yeast, apricot, bay leaves, pumpkin puree, lentils and rice.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 hours until the vegetables and apricot have disintegrated and the lentils and rice are mushy.
Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly, then in batches in a blender or with a stick blender, puree until smooth.
Serve immediately or cool and refrigerate.
