Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the farro is tender but chewy. Drain any excess liquid if necessary and set aside. In a large soup pot, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil or avocado oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until softened and lightly golden. Add the garlic, ginger, and celery. Sauté for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the turmeric, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the carrots, squash, lentils, and vegetable broth, and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the lentils are tender and the soup has thickened to desired consistency. Stir occasionally. Stir in the coconut milk and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, and then add the chopped kale, parsley, and cilantro. Cook until the kale has softened. Once the kale is tender, stir in the juice of ½ to 1 lemon, to taste, for added brightness. Taste the soup again and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, spices, or lemon, and then turn off the heat. To serve, ladle a spoonful of farro and soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley and cilantro, a sprinkle of sunflower seeds, and green onions. If desired, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top of each bowl for added brightness. #plantbased #vegetarianrecipes #nyulangone
