Stewed lentils with mashed potatoes
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups of raw lentils.
1/2 cup of tomato paste.
1 carrot, a sprig of celery, sweet pepper, half an onion, half a red bell pepper.
3 potatoes for the mashed potatoes.
2 garlic cloves.
If you have vegetable broth, it's perfect. A cup would be fine. I had very little, so I added it anyway.
Salt, pepper, curry powder, ground paprika, all to taste.
Process:
1- Boil the lentils in a pot with enough water and two bay leaves. When they're soft, remove from the heat and set aside.
2- While the lentils are cooking, chop all the vegetables into small cubes and crush the garlic cloves.
3- Sauté the garlic until golden brown. Then add the other vegetables and sauté everything thoroughly. When the sauté is ready, add the cooked lentils, vegetable broth, tomato paste, and spices. Mix everything together and cover. Let it cook for a few minutes. Taste the flavor. If it needs more salt, add a little more.
4- While the lentils are cooking, make the mashed potatoes. Boil the potatoes. When they're soft, add butter, a little salt, and a little hot water. You can also use plant-based milk. Blend everything well. And that's it. Serve the mashed potatoes. Top with the lentil stew and enjoy this delicious dish.
