Ingredients

  • 8-10 large carrots – buy organic and you won't need to peel them
  • A 400g (28oz) can of diced or chopped tomatoes in juice without any added seasonings
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • Around 200g (14oz) dried red lentils – I use the empty tomato can to measure half a can of dried red lentils
  • A tablespoon of tomato purée or paste
  • Enough hot stock to cover the veggies and lentils (around 950ml or 32oz). If you have homemade stock then great. Otherwise I use 1-2 Kallo vegetable or chicken stock cubes mixed with water.
  • A splash of red wine vinegar
