How to cook deliciously - Vegetarian Stew

1 . Stage

Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add carrots, onion, and celery. Cover and cook until onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, bay leaf, coriander, curry powder, oregano, cinnamon, salt, and pepper; saute for 2 minutes.

2 . Stage

Stir in water, lentils, and tomato sauce and increase heat to high. Cover and bring to a boil; this is necessary to aid in digestion.

3 . Stage

Slowly add potatoes, kidney beans, canned tomatoes, and peanut butter. Cover and boil for 3 minutes longer. Reduce heat to the lowest setting. Cover and cook until all vegetables are tender and flavors have melded, about 1 hour.
