Love these humble recipes. Thanks for sharing the secret - the thickener, to taking it to the next level. My husband's Abuela was from Andalusia, but he did not get the chance to get these recipes from her. Thanks for being our Abuela 🥰.
Thank you. I love lentils, always did, long before I moved to Spain. Spain is a wonderful treasure of many cuisines, but jut about everyone makes "lentejas" often. Thank you again, and I aait more of Spain on a Fork. Cuidate siempre.
As a child from the US who lived in Spain for almost a year, this was my favorite meal in school. Other meals were good but this just hit the spot and I couldn’t get enough.
This is how the school good programs should feed children. Not fish sticks and Mac and cheese But quality ingredients that are not expensive and healthy. But then you would have lazy cooks serving slop instead of a little respectful integrity.
I love that most most of the recipes do not contain meat. The American diet is slap full of meat at every meal. It's inhumane and evil what is done to these animals.
Using bread as a thickener is a VERY old technique; I've found it in (modern redactions of) medieval cookbooks. And it's so nice to find a recipe with a dried legume which DOESN"T require lengthy pre-soaking!
It's a hit! I made this yesterday and we eagerly ate half for lunch. I haven't looked forward so much to 'leftovers' for dinner for a long time 😅 Lentils, potato and garlic is such a good combination, and the Spanish baguette thickener technique is always magic ✨
My family was from asturias & they made a lot of soups & stews. I grew up eating this & it's not only hearty & delicious but very versatile. Sometimes we put in meat like longaniza or whatever may be on hand. So good. Prospero año nuevo ❤
When I was a child I hated lentils, beans, chickpeas, vegetables and fish, now I am very grateful to my parents for educating me on taste. There is nothing comparable to a good plate of legumes, with a little chorizo, ham and bacon for a winter day.
Happy New Year, Albert! You are a superstar of 'small kitchen cuisine'. No fancy kit is required... every recipe is easy to follow... only basic ingredients are needed. And it's all so healthy! Keep up the good work.
Made this for our vegetarian Christmas dinner, and it was fantastic. Even my husband, who rarely eats vegetables, asked for it to be on our regular meal rotation. Thank you!
Happy New Year Spain on a Fork family! Albert, I can't believe you are working today. Thank you. Love this recipe. I'm a fan of "One Pan". Thanks for a great start to 2024.
Happy New Year to you too Josie! I've been following Albert's recipes for years and adore them so I'm proud to be part of this family who love them too! ♥️♥️
Ooh! This is a new Lentil Stew recipe from you that I found! I saw your other one that did not include the bread and garlic paste. Can’t wait to try! Thank you!
I've made this before and it's always great. I'll make it again tonight, either a double or triple batch, and will put large portions into ziploc bags for convenient meals.
This is a classic Spanish dish. It's obviously fine as it is but open to many variations. You can cook this with added chorizo, morcilla, pork or bacalao. Lentejas (lentils) and potato is a winner.
@@emmel4fun Anything crunchy can go in this too. Chuck in some carrot with the onions if you want. Some chopped up cabbage or greens will do wonders too.
A healthy dish to start the year! Gracias! We avoid bread so I'll mash the stew a bit at the end which should work well. A happy, healthy and prosperous new year to you and all 🎉
Oh boy, A great cold weather recipe! Thank you for all the recipes that you have given us over the years, and we hope that you have a safe and sound 2024. Dr.Michael
I will add that to my repertoire for sure! When it comes to comfort food, nothing compares to a delicious, warming and heart-warming stew. I might add some carrots and chorizo.
Happy New Year Albert, I live in Australia and I have just come across your RUclips channel and so far I love it. I like the way you give measurements in two different ways, such as 1 cup of lentils, which is roughly 200grms. I also love the way you talk through the steps and don't have weird music, lol. I have never cooked Spanish food before, but your recipes look so yummy, I'm about to give it a try. Thank you for keeping them simple as far as equipment and products go too.
Just made this. Had to substitute marinara sauce for tomatoes when I discovered I didn’t have any (fresh or canned) in the house. Still, absolutely delicious! I’m going to try the garlic butter beans tomorrow. Thanks
Grew up with lentil, kidney beans,yellow split peas, black eye peas from childhood...part of my daily weekly diet today at 70...that was our PROTEIN SOURCE
I tried this tonight and it turned out to be really tasty, especially with that kick of smoky paprika. However, next time I'll add chopped carrot and celery to bolster the flavor a bit more.
@@SpainonaFork I made this and it's really good and hearty. I forgot about the tomato sauce so I ended up adding a little tomato paste instead. I have to say, though, grinding the fried baguette with a mortar and pestle takes some muscle.
I cook lentils with potatoes a can of diced tomatoes onion whatever spices I got in my cabinet mainly garlic powder cumin turmeric salt it's sooo versatile
Umm, what was your name? anyway, best wishes to you for 2024. I am not spanish (Australian, South Euro Parents), but your cuisine is my favourite, and the dishes you do are honest recipes to eat and make. I always watch your vids when they come up on my recommended list. I have NEVER seen someone cook whole garlic before, thats another technique learned for me! Thanks
When making the homemade vegetable broth can you add garlic cloves to the pot when simmering or only when you use the broth in it's additional recipes?
Albert: Delicious. A WILL-make... and I have all of the ingredients now. 😋 Thanks again. All the best to you and your family this New Year! (Fan from San Francisco, California.) *!!~ PS: I believe you said you had two children. How big (old) are they now?
It's delicious, but the gold potatoes I used cooked twice as fast as the green lentils. If I make this again I will give the lentils at least a 15 minute head start.
Well, I made this and it came out delicious, but I cooked the lentils in the pressure cooker because I heard Sadhguru say they need hotter heat in order to make them healthier. Also, I tried another recipe and didn't cook them in the pressure cooker and it didn't come out right.How do you get lentils to cook in 30 minutes?
Love these humble recipes. Thanks for sharing the secret - the thickener, to taking it to the next level. My husband's Abuela was from Andalusia, but he did not get the chance to get these recipes from her. Thanks for being our Abuela 🥰.

@@SpainonaFork You are a genius with your delicious and easy recipes.
@@SpainonaFork I made this again last night. I still can't believe how good it is, especially with so few ingredients.
I made this and it was excellent. Substituted gluten free bread and it still tasted great. Appreciate the vegetarian/pescatarian recipes!!
Happy to hear that! Much love :)
Hope your new year is great 😊. I actually got lentils out last night to make stew, then this turned up. Healthy comfort food, thank you.
Sounds great! Much love :)

Good idea! I don't eat meat but maybe I'll sprinkle some crumbled veggie chorizo over it.
@@emmel4fun Anything crunchy can go in this too. Chuck in some carrot with the onions if you want. Some chopped up cabbage or greens will do wonders too.
I agree! Much love :)
@@welshtoro3256 Sounds good!
Mi madre made it just like in the video, but she always added spinach. SO GOOD!
Thankyou again. As a Pescatarian I enjoy many of your delicious recipes.
Thankyou and Happy New Year ! 🥂

Looks so yummy, good work.
Thank you! Much love :)
Absolutely delicious looking. If i have precooked lentils, could they still be used in this recipe? If so, when shouldni add them?
Absolutely! Just add them about 5 minutes before the potatoes are cooked through :) Much love
Im eating so much better thanks to you!
Happy to hear that! Much love :)
Just made a pot and it’s delicious. Cheers🎉
Happy to hear that! Much love :)

Hi can use yellow lentil ?
Yes! But they will cook faster than green :) Much love
I am requesting a split pea recipe if you have any in your arsenal 😍 Preferably soup but I am open to other ideas you may have ❤
We'll see what I can do! Much love :)
¡Feliz año nuevo! Delicioso!!! ❤
Igualmente! Saludos :)
Hello, thank you for the recipe. Could you please advise how much lentils I should use if I want to make this for 5 people? ❤
same amount should work! Much love :)

Happy New Year to you and your family

Great recipe! Fyi...The not salting beans until cooked is a myth.
Yummo. On my list
Much love :)
I hope you have a prosperous 2024 full of adventure and love!
Much love :)
When making the homemade vegetable broth can you add garlic cloves to the pot when simmering or only when you use the broth in it's additional recipes?
I have made the stock before and have added garlic!!!
You can go either way! Much love :)
Happy New Year!
Same to you! Much love :)
I will prepare as soon as possible thank you
Much love :)
We have something similar with noodles rather than potatoes in Turkey: Kara Şimşek (Black Lightning) lol
With lentils? It sounds good!
Sounds great! Much love :)
Making this today! On stove as we speak :)
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)
Albert: Delicious. A WILL-make... and I have all of the ingredients now. 😋 Thanks again. All the best
to you and your family this New Year! (Fan from San Francisco, California.) *!!~ PS: I believe you said
you had two children. How big (old) are they now?
They're getting big! 13 and 16 :) Much love :)
Yum!
Much love :)
I make this with pumpkin.
Sounds great! Much love :)
It's delicious, but the gold potatoes I used cooked twice as fast as the green lentils. If I make this again I will give the lentils at least a 15 minute head start.
Or you can just cut your potatoes bigger :) Much love
It looks like beef stew without the guilt. Did you say wine from Cana Cana? Parden my Spanish :)
Utiel-Requena :) Much love
Could this dish be made with canned lentils?
Absolutely! Just cook it the same or until the potatoes are cooked through, Much love :)
@@SpainonaForkThank you.
❤ lentils
Much love :)
It’s like the Turkish lentil dish called “mercimek yemeği”.
Fantastic😂
Perfect dish to make for today. I have everything but the bread. It would still be good.
Absolutely! Much love :)
