Methods/steps
Add the first 8 ingredients to a large pot, along with water to cover.
Bring to a boil over high heat; adjust heat so the mixture simmers steadily but not violently.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are soft, about 1 hour.
Season to taste with salt and pepper; serve or cover and refrigerate for up to several days before reheating.
