Today's recipe is Vegan Bolognese.

• 1 cup dried brown or green lentils OR 2 cups canned lentils, rinsed
• 4 cloves garlic, one whole and 3 minced, divided
• 1 bay leaf
• 3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 2 ribs celery, diced
• 2 carrots, peeled and diced
• 1 tsp. dried oregano
• 1 tsp. kosher salt
• ¼ tsp. red pepper flakes
• 2 (28-oz.) cans whole tomatoes with their juices
• 2 tsp. sugar
• 1 pound spaghetti

1. If starting with dried lentils, rinse the lentils in a fine-mesh colander to remove any dust or debris. Place the rinsed lentils in a medium saucepan and cover with 3 cups cold water. Add the whole clove of garlic, peeled, and the bay leaf. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
2. Turn the heat down to low, cover the pan and simmer until the lentils are tender, but still holding their shape, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the lentils and allow them to cool. (May be done up to one day in advance.)
3. Make the sauce: heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the celery and carrots and sauté for an additional 5 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.
4. Add the minced garlic, oregano, salt, and red pepper flakes and stir to combine. Sauté an additional minute, just until fragrant.
5. Add the canned tomatoes with their juices, breaking up the tomatoes with your fingers or a wooden spoon, and sugar. Bring the sauce to a boil over high heat.
6. Then, reduce the heat and simmer until slightly thickened and reduced, about 20 minutes.
7. While the sauce is cooking, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook to al dente according to the package directions. Drain.
8. Add 2 cups of the cooked lentils (or the drained and rinsed canned lentils) to the tomato sauce and stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt if necessary. Simmer just until the lentils are heated through.
9. To serve, divide the spaghetti evenly among four plates or pasta bowls. Top with the tomato-and-lentil sauce. Garnish with torn or sliced basil leaves. Serve immediately.

This week I'm talking with return guest, author Rachel Linden. Rachel has a new novel out called Recipe For A Charmed Life. It's a delightful, food-centered, magical-realism story about an American chef in Paris who loses her sense of taste, her job, and her boyfriend on the same day! The result is a journey of reconnection she never would have imagined. The recipe Rachel shares with us on the podcast today is from the novel and it uses her very favorite ingredient.
