Add the onion, celery, carrot, garlic, and a small pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until vegetables are just soft, about 5 minutes. Add in the potatoes, thyme, oregano, and paprika. Cook another 5 minutes, stirring so potatoes don't burn but get just a little crisp on the outside. Add the tomatoes, broth, bay leaves, water, and lentils. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to simmer for 45 minutes or until lentils are very tender. Remove approximately 3 cups. Place in a blender along with the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Puree until creamy and smooth. Return to the pot along with the vinegar and parsley. Stir together, and then taste. Add more salt and pepper as needed.
