Moroccan Red Lentil Stew Recipe | Say Mmm

Ingredients

• 1 large onion, finely chopped

• 1 tsp. ground turmeric
• 3/4 cup celery, finely diced
• 1 tsp. Garam Masala
• 1 1/2 tsp. ground cardamom
• 1 / 4-1/2 tsp. ground cayenne pepper (I only used 1/4 tsp. because I'm a wimp for hot foods)
• 6 cups chicken, beef, or vegetable stock (I used 4 cups chicken and 2 cups beef stock, because that's what I had. You could also use canned broth)
• 1 1/2 cups red lentils
• 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, rinsed until no more foam appears
• 1 can (14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes (I used petite dice, do not drain tomatoes)
