Serve this simple braised lentil recipe with rice and a fresh cucumber salad for a nutrient-dense vegan meal. I use a 3.5 quart enameled cast iron braiser for this recipe. I highly recommend investing in one of these pans. The heavy, tight-fitting lid allows steam to circulate and cook your food to perfection.

Ingredients
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onions sliced
4 cloves garlic crushed
1½ teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoons ground coriander
½ teaspoons cinnamon
½ teaspoons ground sumac
1½ cups French lentils rinsed and drained
4 cups water
3 large carrots peeled and cut into thick slices
1 teaspoons Herbamare
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cups parsley
¼ cups fresh dill
