Directions

• Pick over the lentils and remove any stones or shriveled lentils, then rinse the lentils in a fine mesh sieve.
• Sauté the lentils, sweet potatoes, garlic, and salt over medium heat in the pressure cooker for a minute or two, just to start to bring out the flavor of the garlic and get the pressure cooker warmed up.
• Add the crushed tomatoes and water, and stir very well, making sure the lentils aren’t sticking to the bottom of the pot.
• Bring the pressure cooker to high pressure, then reduce the heat to maintain pressure for 13 minutes. If using an electric pressure cooker, simply set for 13 minutes on High.
• Let the pressure release naturally before removing the lid.
• Stir to combine, and puree with an immersion blender if desired before serving.
