Carrot(s)

1 medium, finely sliced

Celery

1 stick(s), finely chopped

Garlic

3 clove(s), crushed

Fresh rosemary

3 tsp, finely chopped

Mushrooms

250 g, button variety, sliced

Dry lentils

200 g, small green variety, rinsed

Canned diced tomatoes

400 g, (1x400g can)

Vegetable stock cube

1 individual

Tomato paste

Dried bay leaf

Dried oregano

2 tsp

Butternut pumpkin

600 g, spiralised into boodles

Instructions

  1. Lightly spray a large saucepan with oil and heat over medium heat. Cook onion, carrot and celery for 10 minutes or until softened and lightly golden.
  2. Stir in garlic and rosemary and cook for a further minute, then add mushrooms and cook for 3 minutes or until softened.
  3. Add lentils, tomatoes, stock cube, 400ml water, tomato paste, bay leaves and oregano, then season to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered for 30 minutes or until lentils are tender and the sauce has thickened.
  4. Meanwhile, put boodles in a microwave-safe bowl, cover and cook on high for 3 minutes, stirring gently halfway through the cooking time.
  5. Divide boodles between plates and spoon over ragu to serve.
