Lentils recipe I'm going to list the steps that I followed to make lentils last time. Moreover, I'll tell you the ingredients I took to prepare this meal. First of all, I recommend to leave the lentils (500 grammes, more or less) to soak the night before cooking. If you don't do this, you must let them boil an extra half an hour. Furthermore, I also left some pig bones and ham to soak in order to flavour the meal. Next day, you'll have to chop a couple of onions and two garlic cloves. Let's them fry lightly. Then we add four minced carrots, a pepper and two tomatoes. After 5-10 minutes you may add the bones, the jam and the strained lentils. You can also put a little bit of paprika. I have done it. In addition, we can add a copule of "chorizos". Now it's the time to fill the pot with cold water and simmer it for 30 minutes. The best way to know if it's ready is tasting it. Enjoy your meal!

Lentils recipe

I'm going to list the steps that I followed last time to make lentils. I'll also tell you the ingredients I used to prepare this meal. (Note: we rarely use the word 'moreover' in English!)

First of all, I recommend leaving the lentils (500 grams, more or less) to soak overnight before cooking. If you don't do this, you must boil them for an extra half an hour. I also added some pig bones and ham to the pot, in order to add extra flavour to the meal.

The following day, you'll have to chop a couple of onions and two garlic cloves. Let them fry lightly. Then add four minced (note: not sure what you mean here, 'minced' is used only to describe beef/meat, perhaps you mean 'chopped' or 'sliced'?) carrots, a pepper and two tomatoes. After 5-10 minutes you may add the bones, ham and strained lentils. You can also add a little bit of paprika, as I did. In addition, you could add a couple of "chorizos". Now it's time to fill the pot with cold water and let it simmer for 30 minutes. The best way to know if it's ready is by tasting it.

Enjoy your meal!

 

Pretty good and perfectly understandable, the only real changes I made were to help the text flow a little more naturally in English! :)
