Preparação

Add lentils and water in a large stock pot. Slowly bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Keep heat on Medium and stir frequently (lentils will stick and scorch!). Simmer for approximately 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with dab of sour cream and splash of red wine.
