French Lentils With Garlic and Thyme
Ingredients
2
Olive Oil3 tablespoons
Onion1
Garlic2 cloves
Carrots1
French Lentils2 1/4 cups
Thyme1 teaspoon
Bay Leaf3
Salt1 tablespoon
Celery2 sticks
Method
Place a large saucepan over medium heat and add oil. When hot, add chopped vegetables and sauté until softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Add 6 cups water, lentils, thyme, bay leaves and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a fast simmer. Simmer lentils until they are tender and have absorbed most of the water, 20 to 25 minutes. If necessary, drain any excess water after lentils have cooked. Serve immediately, or allow them to cool and reheat later. For a fuller taste, use some chicken stock and reduce the water by the same amount.
