recipe for those: orange lentils: Lentil Bolognese Sauce

[Guest guest]

Hello Tracy.

Here is one recipe I like to make with those red-orange lentils:

 

Lentil Bolognese Sauce

 

1 onion, chopped

3 cloves of minced garlic

2 carrots, coarsely grated

2 celery stalks, chopped

3 Tbs. olive oil

2/3 cup red lentils

1 can (14 oz.) chopped tomatoes, undrained

2 Tbs. tomato paste

2 cups vegetable broth

Dried herbs to taste

Salt and pepper

 

In a large saucepan, gently saute the onions,

garlic, carrots and celery in the oil for about

5 minutes. Add the lentils, tomatoes, tomato

paste, broth and seasonings. Brig this mixture

to a boil, then partially cover with a lid and simmer

for 20 minutes, until thick and soft.

Yield: serves 6
