Method

1

Soak the lentils for 2 to 2.5 hours in cold water. Then add them to a pot of gently salted boiling broth (or water) and simmer for 40–50 minutes until tender.

2

Dice the onion and bell pepper fine, then sauté in oil. Add the diced bacon and tomato paste, cook together for a couple of minutes.

3

About 15–20 minutes before the lentils finish cooking, add the vegetables and bacon to the pot. Toss in a bay leaf, garlic, and black pepper. Serve topped with fresh cilantro and crispy bacon bits.
