SICILIAN LENTIL PASTA SAUCE
Steps:
- In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, mushrooms, zucchini, and garlic. Cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add lentils and 3 cups water to vegetables. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 45 to 60 minutes.
- Stir in tomato sauce, tomato paste, sugar, and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
- If necessary, add more water to keep the sauce from sticking. Be careful not to dilute; the sauce should be quite thick.

[email protected]I'm not a big fan of eggplant, but I actually really enjoyed this sauce. The smokiness of the eggplant was perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the tomatoes.

[email protected]I found that the sauce was a bit too oily. Next time, I'll use less olive oil.
