I keep a glass of cold water on hand when cooking onions so that I can lower the temperature whenever they look like they're going to brown. When I cook Hungarian porkolt I do this for maybe 20 minutes continuously to break the onion down into a gravy sauce when it's finally stewing

Onions are softer than my dick so I'm going to add the garlic and half the diced chorizo to get some fat in the mix. The rest goes in at the end for texture

Now I mix in the chopped veg, a generous pinch of salt and a few turns of the pepper mill. I'm going to cover the Dutch oven and sweat them for a bit because I don't want undercooked spuds

I was going to use a stock cube but I found some unopened chicken stock in my pantry :)

Cover the mix with the rest of my water container and then chicken stock. Going to bring this to a boil then reduce to simmer and cover

The key now is to cook the lentils until soft without splitting them. I will have to check them regularly to make sure they're not cooking on too high a temperature. it should take about 45 minutes

Seems about done, the stock has been absorbed by the lentils nicely and they aren't overcooked

Served with some more pepper and salt and a chunk of crusty bread. This made about 3-4 servings for less than 2€ and it tastes pretty damn good!

I cook lentils similarly, except that in my laziness i dont bother with the sweating and sauteeing phase anymore. I just throw everything in. Boiling for a long time is enough for the flavours to pop.

Aren't you supposed to pre-soak lentils before cooking?

>> No.19078068

>>19078042
Not necessary with this recipe.
>>19077901
It's not completely necessary but IMO the vegetables and lentils absorb more flavour from the chorizo if you rend the fat out of some of the meat before adding the stock/water
>>19077910
If I were to estimate I would say yes. I typically add about two fingers of water/stock over the dry lentil and sweated veg mix before simmering. I might add a couple tbsps during the stewing process if they absorb too much liquid
