Spicy Harissa Lentil Stew With Dark Greens And Turmeric
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 1 shallot minced
- 3 carrots peeled and finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cracked pepper fresh
- 1/2 cup lentils we prefer green lentils, but you can use whichever variety you like
- 30 ounces fire-roasted diced tomatoes
- 5 cups low sodium vegetable stock
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
- 3 tablespoons harissa Cava
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 bunch greens dark, we prefer lacinato kale, but you can use whatever looks best at the market, stems removed and finely chopped, leaves roughly torn
- Add olive oil to a large stockpot and heat to medium. Add onion, garlic, shallot, carrots, and greens stems, and saute until softened, about 7 to 8 minutes. Add cumin, coriander, turmeric, salt, and pepper and saute for another minute or two. Add lentils and diced tomatoes and stir to combine. Add 4 cups of stock, grated ginger, harissa, and the bay leaf and simmer over medium-low heat for about 30 minutes, until lentils are tender. Add additional stock to achieve a thinner consistency if you prefer. Add torn greens to the stew and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes, until greens have wilted. Remove bay leaf before serving. Taste and season to your liking.
- Serve stew by itself or over a warm bowl of grains. Add a dollop of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley if you like.
