Directions:
- Put the lentils and water in a large saucepan and place over high heat. Bring to a boil, add the chopped chard, and reduce the heat to medium. Cover the pan and boil gently for 15 minutes. Mix the softened chard and the lentils well and cook uncovered for another 45 minutes.
- Place the garlic cloves in a mortar, add a generous pinch of salt, and pound with a pestle until you have a smooth paste.
- Slowly incorporate the lemon juice into the garlic paste, then do the same with the olive oil.
- Add the garlic mixture to the soup.
- Season with salt and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes. Serve at room temperature.
