vegetarian-lentil-stew

Make this stew when you want a meal that's both hearty and filling – it's loaded with vegetables and tender lentils

STEP 1
Snap the bottom ends of the celery and lift up to remove the strings, then finely chop. Heat the oil in a large saucepan, then add the celery, potatoes, carrots, leek, garlic and onions. Cook gently for 10-15 mins, until the vegetables have softened slightly.
STEP 2
Add the stock, then stir in the lentils and curry powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a medium heat and simmer for 30 mins, until the lentils are tender. Taste and season with the red wine vinegar, a little salt and pepper and a pinch of sugar. Sprinkle over the parsley to serve.
