Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 liter good chicken stock
350 g penne pasta
1/3 cup virgin olive oil
extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, small dice
3 stalks celery, small dice
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
400 g canned lentils, drained

Steps:

  • Boil the chicken stock in a large saucepan for 10 minutes, or until it has reduced to 2 cups of liquid.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large saucepan of rapidly boiling water until al dente.
  • Drain and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a large deep frying pan, add the carrot, onion and celery and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  • Add two thirds of the crushed garlic and the thyme and cook for a further minute.
  • Add the stock, and bring to boil and cook gently for 8 minutes, or until reduced slightly and the vegetables are tender.
  • Gently add the lentils and stir until heated through.
  • Stir in the remaining garlic and a little extra thyme, and season with plenty of cracked black pepper and sea salt.
  • The stock should be slightly syrupy at this point.
  • Combine the pasta with the lentil sauce in a large bowl, drizzle generously with olive oil and serve with grated parmesan if liked.

This was the worst lentil dish I've ever had. The sauce was bland and the lentils were hard.

I thought this dish was just okay. The sauce was a bit too thin and the lentils were a bit too mushy.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me. I would recommend using less chili flakes.

I had some trouble getting the sauce to thicken. I ended up adding some cornstarch and it worked perfectly.
