I used <a href=\"https:\/\/urlgeni.us\/amzn\/Ln6j6I\">green lentils<\/a>, but you could use brown lentils, red lentils or a mixture of them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>sweet potatoes<\/strong> &#8211; add natural sweetness, vibrant color and a creamy texture as they soften.

A nourishing meal made with pantry staples that is gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan.\" class=\"wp-image-32006\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Make Lentil Stew<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Saut\u00e9 the onion.&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;Drizzle olive oil in a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/urlgeni.us\/amzn\/4OjC\">large dutch oven<\/a>&nbsp;or large pot over medium-high heat and saut\u00e9 onion for 3 to 4 minutes. Add in the garlic and saut\u00e9 for an additional minute.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Let the soup simmer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Add in the rest of the ingredients (except for the salt) and bring to a rapid boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to a simmer and cook uncovered for about 20 to 30 minutes, until <a href=\"https:\/\/urlgeni.us\/amzn\/Ln6j6I\">lentils<\/a> are cooked through and not falling apart.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Serve and enjoy!<\/strong>\u00a0Remove the stew from the heat, season with salt and top with fresh parsley. Ladle soup into bowls and serve with crusty bread or warm naan, if desired. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Add Salt at the End?<\/h2>\n<p>So here&#8217;s my little tip to make perfectly tender, non-mushy <a href=\"https:\/\/urlgeni.us\/amzn\/Ln6j6I\">lentils<\/a>. Bring everything to rapid boil in a large pot (except for the salt). Turn the heat down super low so that the stew simmers (to just barely a bubble) without covering. Allow the lentils to simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes uncovered until they are cooked through, but not falling apart. Take them off of heat and THEN add in your salt. Adding salt right at the very end helps stop the cooking process and makes them come out perfect!<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" src=\"http:\/\/anitaexpert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/lentil-stew-5.jpg\" alt=\"This hearty Lentil and Sweet Potato Stew is is delicious, super filling and easily comes together in under 30 minutes for the perfect weeknight dinner! A nourishing meal made with pantry staples that is gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan.\" class=\"wp-image-32010\" \/><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips for the Best Lentil Stew<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Rinse lentils well <\/strong>&#8211; rinsing the lentils under cold water removes excess starch and any debris. This simple step improves the texture of the lentils and helps keep the broth from becoming cloudy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cut sweet potatoes evenly<\/strong> &#8211; cutting the sweet potatoes in uniform pieces ensures they will cook evenly in the stew.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t rush the simmer<\/strong> &#8211; once the stew comes to a boil, make sure to reduce it to a gentle simmer as slow cooking the stew allows the flavors to full develop. This also prevents the lentils from splitting and turning mushy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Adjust thickness<\/strong> &#8211; feel free to add more broth if you prefer a soupier stew or simmer longer for a thicker texture. Letting the stew sit for 10 minutes before serving will also help thicken the stew.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add salt at the end<\/strong> &#8211; this is a simple trick to ensure you get perfect lentils in the stew. Salting too early can cause affect the pectin in lentils causing them to become tough.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" src=\"http:\/\/anitaexpert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/lentil-stew-6.jpg\" alt=\"This hearty Lentil and Sweet Potato Stew is is delicious, super filling and easily comes together in under 30 minutes for the perfect weeknight dinner!
