I discovered this dish when I didn't have any fresh vegetables and I was too lazy to go to a shop ;). Originally it was with sliced black olives instead of broccoli. It became one of my favorite dishes, since it's easy to prepare and very tasty.
Ingredients:
- 250 ml dry red lentils
- 1 broccoli
- 1 onion
- cheese
- olive oil
- tomato paste
- 1 garlic clove
- curry, black pepper, salt
- pasta
Slice onion and broccoli in small pieces. Put some olive oil into a pot, add onion and fry for a while, add broccoli and some water. Cook until broccoli is soft. In the meanwhile cook lentils in water with salt in another pot. When lentils are cooked, put them into the pot with broccoli, add tomato paste, garlic (sliced in very small pieces) and spices. Cook everything together for a while. Don't forget to cook pasta!
When you put the food into a plate, put a slice of cheese between pasta and vegetables, so that it melts.
Bom apetite!
