Ingredients

1 Clove garlic, minced
1 Onion, chopped
1 T olive oil
1 T cumin
T Bragg Liquid Aminos
6 C water
1 C split peas
1 C grated carrots
1 Potato, chopped

Directions

1
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautÃÂ©ing until softened and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.

3
Add the water and split peas to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
4
Remove the pot from heat, cover, and let the mixture sit for 1 hour to soften the peas.
5
Add the chopped potato and grated carrots to the pot. Return to heat and bring to a simmer.
6
Cover and simmer over low heat for about 2 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the split peas have broken down to thicken the stew.

Note

This dish improves in flavor if left to cool and reheated the next day, as the flavors meld further.

The consistency will be thick and stew-like due to the split peas breaking down. If a thinner consistency is preferred, add extra water during the final simmer.

Ensure the potatoes are cut into small, uniform chunks so they cook evenly within the 2-hour simmer time.
