  1. Heat the stock in a large pan and add the lentils.
  2. Bring to the boil and allow the lentils to soften for a few minutes.
  3. Add the carrots and leeks, and season (don't add salt if you use ham stock as it will make it too salty).

  5. Scatter over the parsley and serve with buttered bread, if you like.
