⌁1tbsp chopped parsley
Seasonings:
⌁2tsp garlic powder
⌁salt to taste
⌁1tbsp Maggi liquid flavouring (optional but recommended)
⌁veggie stock
⌁cayenne chili powder
⌁paprika powder
Method:
Start by soaking your lentils in water for at least 12 hours. Wash and drain them a few times before cooking.
In a large pot, sauté the onion with the oilve oil until soft, then add the garlic cloves.
Add the lentils, tomato passata and veggie stock to cover the lentils and stir.
Add in all of the seasonings to taste and cook for 30mins or until tender, stirring occasionally and keeping the pot half covered.
