Pin RecipeIngredients
400g tin of cooked lentils, drained- 1 cup finely chopped yellow onion
- 1 chopped ripe tomato
- 3 cloves garlic, sliced
- 1 peeled carrot, sliced
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 1 tbs sweet paprika
- 1/4 tsp chili (or more if you like it HOT)
- S+P
- 1 tsp vegetable stock powder
- 1 tbs tomato puree
- 1 cup water
- 1 tbs cashew cream
Instructions
- Add onions, garlic and celery to a fry pan and sautée in water until the onions are see through
- Then add the paprika and vegetable stock powder and stir for around 3 minutes. Careful: paprika burns easily.
- Add splashes of water
- Add chopped carrots, chopped tomato, tomato paste and water. Let it simmer 10 min until carrots soften
- Add drained lentils and S+P and simmer for another 10 minutes
- Add cashew cream and adjust the seasoning
- I ate this with only green vegetables. If you are not suffering from ‘carb phobia’ you can add brown rice or even better, some cooked quinoa for extra protein.
