Lentil peas is a hearty and nutritious dish that combines lentils and peas with a variety of vegetables and spices. The stew typically starts by sautéing onions, garlic, and other aromatic vegetables like carrots and celery in oil or butter until they are softened and fragrant. Lentils and peas are then added to the pot along with vegetable or chicken broth, herbs, and spices such as thyme, cumin, or paprika. The stew is simmered until the lentils and peas are tender and the flavors have melded together. The result is a flavorful and comforting stew with a thick and hearty texture. Lentil peas stew can be enjoyed on its own or served with crusty bread or rice for a complete meal.
