Ingredients

• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 onions, chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
• 2 potatoes, peeled and chopped
• 3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
• 3 celery sticks, chopped
• 500g red lentils, soaked and washed
• 2 400g cans chopped tomatoes
• 2 tbsp tomato purée
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 tsp dried oregano
