Time 1h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil
½ onion, finely chopped
5 cloves garlic, minced
3 celery ribs, chopped
4 carrot, peeled and sliced
1 (32 fluid ounce) container vegetable broth
2 cups water
1 (15 ounce) can stewed tomatoes, undrained
1 (15 ounce) can brown lentils
2 (7 ounce) cans French chestnuts
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Pour the olive oil into a large, deep pot set over medium-high heat. Stir in the onion and garlic; cook until transparent, about 5 minutes. Add the celery, carrots, vegetable broth, and water; cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, pour in the tomatoes, and cook 10 to 15 minutes more. Reduce heat to low, and mix in the lentils and chestnuts; cook for 1 hour until the chestnuts soften. Pour in more water to thin the stew, if desired. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

This stew was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more spices or herbs. Otherwise, it was a good stew and I would make it again with some adjustments.
