Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Heat a large pot over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then beef, peppers and mirepoix. Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.** Season with salt and pepper.
- Add crushed tomatoes, chicken stock powder, lentils and their liquid, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) chili flakes and 1/2 cup (1 cup) water. Bring to a simmer.
- Once simmering, cook for 4-5 min, stirring often, until stew thickens slightly. (TIP: Scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan — this will add extra flavour!)
- Divide stew between bowls.
- Dollop pesto in a circular motion over top.
- Sprinkle with feta and more chili flakes, if you like.
If you've opted to get beef, cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook sausage.**
