Step 1: In a large soup pot over medium high heat heat the oil and then add the lamb and vegetables (celery - garlic); saute until vegetables are almost tender and lamb is cooked through (15 minutes).
Step 2: Stir in lentils and stir one minute. Add broth, water, tomatoes and spices (thyme and dill), bring to a boil and reduce heat to low and simmer covered for 40 minutes or until lentils are tender.
Step 3: Using an immersion blender, puree some of the soup but leave some of the lentils and vegetables whole. Thin soup with additional broth or water if desired.
