• Lentil Stew with Crispy Garlic Potatoes

    Date: 2009.03.16 | Category: Recipes, Vegan/Lenten | Tags:

    I found a recipe on someone’s blog (but I can’t remember who!) and then tweaked it a little bit.  It was REALLY good!  I love lentils when the weather is cold, and this was perfect for a snowy night.

    Lentil Stew and Crispy Garlic Potatoes

    Stew:

    1 onion, chopped
    1 bag of lentils (one pound)
    1 vegan boullion cube
    1 can of corn with liquid
    1/2 cup tomato sauce
    1 Tbsp (or more) of Curry
    1 1/2 cups water

    Saute the onions and then mix in the rest of the ingredients. Bring to a boil and then simmer for about half an hour or until most of the liquid is absorbed.

    Potatoes:

    Cut up 1 or 2 large potatoes into small slices and then brown in a skillet with 2 Tbsp of butter or margarine, stirring occasionally.
    Add a few cloves of garlic, minced, and stir.
    When the potatoes are browned and crispy, they are done.

    Last Step:

    Pour the stew into bowls and then top with the crispy potatoes.  YUM!
