Stovetop Method
Heat oil in a large dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, celery and salt; cook until soft (about 6 minutes).
Stir in bouillon concentrate to coat veggies. Stir in lentils, then add water, ham bone and remaining ingredients.
Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook about 2 hours, or until ham is falling off the bone.
Remove bones and discard. Use two forks to shred the ham; stir it back into the soup. Sprinkle with more parsley, if desired.
Pressure Cooker Method
Follow instructions for stovetop, using saute setting on your pressure cooker for first steps. Pressure cook on high for 30 minutes.
