Method
- Soften onion, carrot, celery and garlic cloves in olive oil.
- Stir in the lentils, tomato passata, water, rosemary, bay leaf, salt and black pepper.
- Simmer 40 to 50 minutes until the lentils are tender and the stew is thick, adding water if it catches.
- Remove the bay leaf and serve with a drizzle of olive oil.
Shopping tip
Brown or green dried lentils, not the salad kind in a jar. Soffritto vegetables. Passata. A bay leaf if you have one.
