Sauté the Onion

Sauté the onion and garlic cloves in olive oil until softened, then add the cumin.

2

Add the Firm Vegetables

3 min

Add the carrot and potato and stir for 3 minutes.

3

Add the Lentils and Water

15 min

Add the red lentils and water and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat for 15 minutes.
