Cooking method

Cooking time: 2 h

Lentils need to be washed and soaked for an hour and a half. While it is soaking, prepare a vegetable dressing:

- cut a garlic clove into strips,
- rub the carrots on a coarse grater,
- cut the onion into small cubes,
- select the "Frying" mode and pour oil into the bowl of the slow cooker,
- put the garlic, fry it until the aroma appears, then remove it from the bowl,
- put onions and carrots in the bowl, fry until the onion is golden.

Now you need to drain the water from the lentils, rinse the lentils and put them directly to the fried vegetables. Fill with water, add salt and spices. Close the multivark with a lid, select the "Rice" (or "Buckwheat") mode, the time is 20 minutes.

While the slow cooker is cooking, wash, dry and chop the greens.

The signal about the end of the program sounded - open the lid, taste the lentils. If it seems a little harsh to you, finish cooking in the same mode for another 5 minutes. As a rule, in my slow cooker during this time it turns out to be perfect.

The lentils are ready - add the chopped greens, mix everything well and serve until the dish has cooled down.

Bon appetit!
