INGREDIENTS
•
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
•
1 medium sized yellow onion, diced
•
4 oz Pancetta or lardons ( I have also chopped up 4 slices of bacon for this recipe if I didn't have pancetta)
•
2 cups French green lentils (also known as Lentils du Puy)
•
3 carrots, peeled and chopped in small pieces
•
1 bouillon cube (I like beef flavor for this recipe, but chicken works very well too)
•
1 bouquet garni (1 sprig of rosemary, 2 sprigs of thyme, 1 bay leaf tied together with some cooking string)
•
8 cups of water
