Good to know
- If you don’t have dried lentils, a 540 ml can will also do the trick! Be sure to rinse them well before adding them to the recipe.
- Frozen vegetables, previously blanched (cooked in boiling water for a few minutes), save time and they are just as nutritious as fresh ones.If you have time and fresh vegetables on hand (such as onions, zucchini, carrots, celery, eggplant, peppers, etc.), even better! You can even use vegetables that are a little “tired”. Cut them into small pieces or grate them (depending on the vegetable) and start the recipe by browning them in oil over high heat until tender.
- If you don’t have fresh garlic, you can replace it with ½ teaspoon of garlic powder.
