LENTILS WITH VEGETABLES
INGREDIENTS FOR 4 PEOPLE:
1 2/3 cup lentils
1/2 leek
1/2 onion
2 carrots
1 medium potato
1 clove garlic
1 teaspoon of paprika
Water
1 bay leaf
salt and pepper
3 tablespoons of olive oil
HOW TO MAKE COOKED LENTILS WITH VEGETABLES:
- First peel and clean the potato and carrot. Also peel the onion. Then cut all the vegetables into slices.
- Now put all the raw ingredients in a large saucepan. Cover them thoroughly with water (it will depend on how thick you want the lentils. I usually cover all the ingredients with water about 1-2” above the level of the ingredients. Bring them to a boil.
- Once it boils, cover it and let it cook for about 20 minutes. The best thing to do is to try it since not all lentils take the same amount of time to cook, but after 20-30 minutes, they should be soft and ready to eat.
