Vegetarian dishes don’t need to be tasteless and are often nice for a mid-week dinner when you are time poor or feel like something a little lighter or different. Lentils are super easy to use and disguise well in a lot of dishes due to their mild flavour.
If using uncooked lentils, place lentil into a saucepan adding approximately 2 cups of water. Bring lentils to the boil and then reduce to a simmer, covering lentils for approximately 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add additional water if required.
Add oil, spices, garlic and onion to a fry pan and sauté until onion has softened slightly.
Add chopped cauliflower, sweet potato, tomatoes and zucchini and mix through. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.
Add cooked lentils or tinned lentils and stir through. Cover and cook for a further 10 minutes until potato is soft.
Serve and enjoy.
