- Add the lentils, potatoes, carrots and cinnamon stick (if using) to the pan. Pour in enough water (I use the water from soaking lentils) or vegetable broth to completely cover the lentils & veggies.
- Bring everything to a boil then turn to low heat. Cover with lid and simmer for 30-45 until soft.
