Slow Cooked Lamb Ribs on Truffle Puree and Letils
Let's prepare it!
1
Lentil Stew method
Rinse the lentils well and set them in a wide bowl. Cover with water and soak for at least 12 hours or overnight with baking soda powder.
Place the onions, carrots, and celery in a large saucepan or soup pot with two tablespoons of olive oil and sauté gently on low heat until the vegetables are very softened and the onions are somehow translucent, but not coloured.
Add bay leaf, drained lentils and chicken stock.
Add the remaining ingredients, bring to boil and then turn the heat down to a gentle simmer and cook until the lentils are tender, for about 45 min.
Keep checking on them and add more water if necessary.
Only when the lentils are tender, add salt to taste, otherwise, they will remain hard.
