This stew is simple, affordable, and nutritious, plus everyone loves how it tastes! In Morocco, this recipe is simply named after its main ingredient, ""lentils"" or ""Adas."" In English, however, it is usually referred to as a soup or stew. It is a simple one pot meal that takes only 40 minutes from start to finish. Lentils with carrots is a delicious vegetarian (easily turned vegan) meal that is made with lentils and carrots as its main ingredient, along with fresh parsley and cilantro, tomato paste, onions, garlic and warm spices (including ginger, paprika, chili, cumin, and turmeric). The traditional lentils used in this recipe are known as French Lentils, which cook quickly but maintain their shape after cooking. The carrots in the dish add a wonderful note of sweetness to the dish, but if you're not a fan of carrots, feel free to replace them with pumpkin or the squash of your choice. Lentils are a great source of plant based protein, fiber and vitamin B, which makes it a wholesome meat substitute. If you eat fish however, this dish is highly recommended as Moroccans love to pair it with fried and grilled fish, especially sardines. Make sure to serve the lentils with some Moroccan bread, drizzle some olive oil on top with a dash of fresh herbs for a pop of color, then enjoy!
