PREPARATION: Heat oil in pan and saut onions until translucent. Add garlic and saut until golden. Add lentils, salt and pepper and stir for one minute.

Add water (or stock), tomatoes and tomato puree and cook until lentils are soft and liquid has thickened (about 30 minutes). Add lemon juice and vinegar. Cook another 10 minutes.
