Instructions

Soak the lentils for 2 hours or overnight.

  1. Finely chop the onion and tomato.
  2. Drain the lentils and sauté them in a large pot with the onion, tomato, and olive oil until the onion is translucent.
  3. Add the bay leaves, salt, pepper, tomato paste, and 250 ml of water; then, bring to a boil.
  4. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, ensuring there is enough liquid for the stew to keep producing steam.

Serve with a few cilantro leaves on top.

Compare nutritional quality for the same energy budget. The calorie basis is 2,000 kcal: conceptually, scale an ingredient or recipe to 2,000 kcal and compare its nutrients with the reference targets. This is a comparison tool, not a suggested portion or a personal daily intake report.

How to use these scores

Fiber is compared with its standard Daily Value. Protein uses three times its standard Daily Value. Vitamin and mineral scores cap each nutrient’s Daily Value contribution at 100% before averaging, then adjust that average to 2,000 kcal. The overall score averages fiber, protein, vitamin and mineral scores; scores are capped at 100. Missing nutrient data contributes zero. These reference scores do not change with your personal targets.

Use protein and fiber scores to shortlist ingredients or recipes that help meet your goals within your calorie budget. Compare foods used for the same purpose, then check realistic portions and the detailed nutrient amounts. A high score alone does not establish a balanced diet.
