Lentil Stew
SERVES 4
We’ve gone for a lentil stew this
month using store cupboard
ingredients, healthy after all the
Christmas indulgence, super easy
and warming in this chilly weather.
It’s really tasty. This recipe can be
frozen. Leave to thaw and reheat
gently before serving.
INGREDIENTS
1 carrot, diced
2 lees, finely sliced
2 celery stals, finely sliced
onion, finely chopped
1 x 400g tin tomatoes
150ml vegetable stock
225g lentils (dried puy lentils or green
lentils work best)
A little parsley to serve
METHOD
1. Gently fry the carrot, leeks, celery and
onion in a little butter or oil until soft
2. Add the remaining ingredients,
cover and simmer until the lentils
are tender and the vegetables are
cooked (aprox 45 mins)
3. Season and serve with a sprinkle of
parsley and some crusty bread
