Brown the garlic, onion, carrots and celery. <br><br>Add the remaining 3 spices and seasoning cubes. Stir well and cook for one minute. <br><br>Add a little more olive oil and brown the potatoes. <br><br>Add the coconut milk, stock, water, passata and lentils. Stir well. <br><br>Add the chopped herbs and stir again. <br><br>Bring to a gentle simmer. Cook until the potato and carrots are tender. <br><br>Blend to smooth and serve. <br><br>Enjoy! X
