French Lentils with Garlic and vegetables image

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion
2 cloves garlic
1 peeled and finely chopped carrot
3 bay leaves
1 teaspoon thyme
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 1/4 cups french lentils

Steps:

  • Place a large saucepan over medium heat and add oil. When hot, add chopped vegetables and sauté until softened, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Add 6 cups water, lentils, thyme, bay leaves and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a fast simmer.
  • Simmer lentils until they are tender and have absorbed most of the water, 20 to 25 minutes. If necessary, drain any excess water after lentils have cooked. Serve immediately, or allow them to cool and reheat later.
