Directions

  1. Sautée garlic, onions, lentils, and mushrooms on medium to med high heat until mushrooms look done.
  2. Turn up heat a bit add tomatoes and carrots. Stir continuously until tomatoes break apart. Tomatoes should make it a bit watery.

  4. Turn down the heat to low and add more water until there is enough to line the bottom of the wok (or large pan works - in either), add soy sauce and or miso.
  5. Stir and simmer the lentils half-covered until tender.
