Ingredients
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring the lentils and water or vegetable broth to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes or until the lentils are tender. Drain any excess liquid and set aside.
While the lentils are cooking, dice the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the bell pepper, zucchini, and carrot.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
Add the bell pepper, zucchini, broccoli, and carrot, and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Add the cooked lentils to the skillet and stir to combine.
Pour in the soy sauce or tamari, sesame oil, and grated ginger, and stir to coat the lentils and vegetables evenly.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Garnish with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro.
