Step 1

The lentils are boiled in a ratio of 1 unit of lentils to 3 units of water. When it starts to boil, put a whole onion in water, turn down the heat and let it boil until the lentils are soft - about 1 hour maximum, even less for some types of lentils.

During this time you can harden the onion. It is cooked in a healthy style as follows:

Put chopped onion, half a glass of water and 3 tablespoons of oil in the heated pan. Let it simmer over normal heat until the onion is well softened.

Step 3

Because I put a mixture of organic dehydrated vegetables, I didn't use peppers. If you make them with fresh vegetables, put them in the oven with the onion in step 2.

When the vegetables are ready, add the dried spices, mix and turn off the heat.
