Vegan Lentil Fideuà | Celia's Saucer


Aka 'Shorbat Adas'

Ok, so I'm really going to town with the name of this given that it was inspired by a Middle Eastern recipe, and I just chucked some Spanish fideua in for bulk.

I really can't deny that it's a blooming marvellous and quick vegan eat though, so I thought I had best share the recipe and let you get on with it.

For all those attempting Veganuary, may these lentils be with you.

INGREDIENTS 

250g yellow split peas
100g fideua (aka vermicelli)
1 white onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Splash of olive oil
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp turmeric
1 bay leaf
Vegetable stock to cover

...............................................................

METHOD 

Heat oil on medium-high heat

During the last three minutes, add fideua until cooked through
