Enjoy a warming bowl of hearty lentil vegetable stew, brimming with tender lentils, aromatic vegetables, and a rich tomato base, crowned with a delicately poached egg. This comforting meal offers a blend of textures and a burst of flavor that rises from the simmering broth enriched with garlic and fresh spinach.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 cups cooked brown lentils (approx 240g)
1 medium carrot (61g)
1 stalk celery (40g)
1 small onion (70g)
1/2 cup canned diced tomatoes (122g)
1 cup fresh spinach (30g)
1 cup vegetable broth (240g)
2 cloves garlic (6g)
1 tsp olive oil (4.5g)
1 large egg (poached, 50g)
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables begin to soften, about 4-5 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the cooked lentils, canned diced tomatoes, and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Allow the stew to simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. If desired, add the fresh spinach in the last few minutes to wilt it.
While the stew simmers, poach the egg in a small pot of simmering water until the white is set and yolk remains runny, about 3-4 minutes.
Season the stew with salt and pepper to taste.
Ladle the hearty lentil vegetable stew into a bowl and top with the poached egg.
Serve warm and enjoy your nourishing, protein-packed meal.
