Under Construction!


As prepared on 06-Sep-2014

4 qt sauce
5 qt saute

1 heaping	(spoon)		veg stock powder (table-type tablespoon)
				water to cover by 2 inches
1		lb		lentils
				olive oil
3		med-to-lg	onions, "half-hollywood cut"
20		oz		white mushroom pieces
150		g		minced garlic
				salt
				black pepper

in a modest amount of olive oil, cook the mushrooms; set aside

in a generous amount of olive oil, caramelize the onions (start on high
heat just until they sizzle, then turn down to gently bubbling, stirring
and turning down more as necessary)

combine the stock powder, water, and lentils; bring to a boil (coverd)
then reduce to a simmer (still covered); cook until soft, adding water
as necessary (aiming for a slightly soupy mixture)

when the onions are almost finished, add the garlic and black pepper

when the garlic is (gently!) cooked, stir in the mushrooms and remove
from the heat

combine all ingredients, add salt as needed
