Anleitung
- 1.Place the chopped sweet potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes until very tender. Drain well, then mash until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and set aside.
- 2.While the potatoes are boiling, heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Sauté the onion and carrots for 5-7 minutes until softened.
- 3.Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 5 minutes until they release their liquid and start to brown. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for one more minute until fragrant.
- 4.Stir in the rinsed lentils, chopped tomatoes, vegetable broth, tomato puree, thyme, and rosemary. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat, cover, and cook for 25-30 minutes until the lentils are tender and the sauce has thickened.
- 5.Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Transfer the lentil filling to a 2-liter baking dish.
- 6.Spoon the mashed sweet potato over the lentil filling and spread evenly, creating a sealed top. Use a fork to create a textured surface.
- 7.Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is lightly golden and the filling is bubbling at the edges. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
