- 1⁄2 teaspoon cayenne powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1 -2 tablespoon plain yogurt
- 250 g pasta
directions
- Chop up or grate all of your veggies. I used a garlic press and my food processor.
- Heat oil in a deep pan or wok. Add the onion and fry until translucent, add the garlic and fry for a few seconds to release the aroma.
- Add the tomatoes and zucchini. Simmer and stir occasionally, until the veggies begin to soften.
- Stir in the lentils and spices.
- Simmer for about half an hour with the lid on so the moisture stays inches.
- About 15 minutes into cooking, bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Cook the pasta according to the directions. Also add the yogurt to the sauce at this time.
- Serve it and listen to the yummy noises.
