Hearty Lentil and Vegetable Stew
Red lentils and sweet peas simmered into a thick, velvety stew with aromatic root vegetables and iron-rich spinach, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
0.33 cup dry red lentils
0.75 cup frozen green peas
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
2 cup vegetable broth
1 medium carrot
1 stalk celery
0.25 medium yellow onion
2 clove garlic
1 cup fresh spinach
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp smoked paprika
0.5 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
In a large pot, sauté the diced onion, carrot, and celery in two tablespoons of vegetable broth over medium heat until the onions are translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, and ground cumin, cooking for one minute until the spices are fragrant.
Add the dry red lentils and the remaining vegetable broth to the pot, then bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until the lentils have softened and absorbed most of the liquid.
Stir in the frozen green peas and nutritional yeast, cooking for an additional three minutes until the peas are heated through.
Fold in the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt in the residual heat of the stew.
Season with sea salt and black pepper, then stir in the fresh lemon juice just before serving.
