Low Fat Red Lentil Sauce

6 oz red lentil

3/4 pint Vegetable Stock or water

1 dsp olive oil

1 medium onion, finely chopped

1 garlic clove, chopped

14 oz can chopped tomatoes, with liquid

1 fl oz red wine

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp five-spice powder, level

 

 

 

Simmer the lentils in the stock or water until they

are very soft (about 45 minutes). Meanwhile, heat the

oil in a medium heavy-based non-stick saucepan and

stir-fry the onion for a few minutes until soft,

adding a dash of water if it gets too dry.

 

Add the garlic and stir that for a minute. Add the

rest of the ingredients, including the lentil mixture.

Simmer for 15 minutes. Put throught the blender, or

leave unblended for a coarser sauce. Ideal over pasta.

 

Serves: 4
