Ingredients

  • 200g lentils
  • 160g gluten-free pasta
  • 80g red pepper
  • 80g mushrooms
  • 200g chopped tomatoes
  • 9g garlic
  • 5g olive oil
  • a handful of fresh basil
  • 8g parmesan

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the peppers and mushrooms, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Cook the gluten-free pasta for 8-10 minutes, stirring often, and rinse briefly to stop it sticking.

  3. 3

    Simmer the cooked green lentils with a splash of stock for 5 minutes until they absorb the flavours.

  4. 4

    Gently fry the garlic in the olive oil, add the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10-12 minutes until rich. Tear in the basil at the end.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the peppers and mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: gluten-free pasta first, then the veg and green lentil, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the parmesan.
