Lentil Stew

The first thing to do is to soak the lentils the night before.

In a saucepan fry the vegetables until golden brown. Add the spices and salt and cook for 5 more minutes.

Add the drained lentils, the crushed tomato and the water.

We close the pot, turn up the heat and once it boils we leave it on medium heat for 40'. The time is approximate, the ideal is to check it.

* The vegetables and garlic can be chopped more or less to our taste. You can also add potato or accompany with rice.
