Add the oil and heat until it thins out\, about 30 seconds. Add onions and carrots\, and sauté until very soft and brown at the edges\, 7 to 10 minutes.\nMeanwhile\, rinse the greens and pull the leaves off the stems. Tear or chop into bite-size pieces and set aside.\nWhen the onions are golden\, add tomato paste\, cumin and red-pepper flakes to the pot\, and sauté until paste darkens\, about 1 minute. Add garlic\, ginger and salt and sauté.\n(Use of a turkey is optional) Add turkey\, breaking up the meat with your spoon\, until turkey is browned in spots\, 4 to 7 minutes. \nAdd stock and beans\, and bring to a simmer. Let simmer until the soup is thick and flavorful\, adding more salt if needed\, 15 to 25 minutes. If you like a thicker broth\, you can smash some of the beans with the back of the spoon to release their starch. Or leave the beans whole for a brothier soup.\nAdd the greens to the pot and simmer until they are very soft. This will take 5 to 10 minutes for most greens\, but tough collard greens might take 15 minutes. (Add a little water if the broth gets too reduced.)\nStir herbs and lemon juice into the pot\, taste and add more salt\, cumin and lemon until the broth is lively and bright-tasting.
