Lentil Ragu
How to Make It
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan on a medium heat and cook the onions, carrots and garlic for 10-15 minutes.
Stir in the lentils, chopped tomatoes, puree, herbs and stock and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 45 minutes until the lentils are tender. Add more water if necessary.
Whilst the lentils are cooking, cook the spaghetti in a saucepan of boiling water for 10 minutes, then drain.
Serve the spaghetti and top with the lentil ragu.
