Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1/2 cup dried lentils
• 1 tablespoon salad oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• water, to cover
• 1/4 cup salad oil
• 2 onions, sliced (1/4-inch slice)
• 1 lb ground lamb (since it can be hard to find ground lamb i've thrown in a couple of shoulder chops and shredded them)
• 1 1/2 cups stewed tomatoes (15oz)
• 1/2 cup sliced carrot
• 1/2 cup diced celery (i just slice)
• 1/2 cup diced green pepper
• 1/2 cup diced parsnip (slice)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 cups water

Recipe

• 1 mix together and soak overnight: lentils oil,salt and water to cover.
• 2 drain and discard liquid next day. (i have also eliminated this entire step without a problem).
• 3 heat pressure cooker and add remaining ingredients along with the lentils.
• 4 pressure cook for 20 min and let pressure drop on it's own.
• 5 i usually use more veggies and it comes out almost like a stew instead of a soup.
• 6 the parsnips really help to make this so try to include them.
