Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Transfer the rice to a pot or saucepan and pour in the water (see pantry for amount).
  • Cover with the lid and boil for 10 - 12 minutes, then turn off the heat and allow to stand for 5 minutes, still covered.
  • Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic.
  • Deseed the jalapeño* and slice into thin rings. Set aside two slices per person to use later as garnish.

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

Chop the vegetables
2
  • Peel or thoroughly wash the sweet potato and cut into rough chunks of no more than 2cm.
  • Dice the tomato and cut the Romano pepper into thin strips.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Fry the garlic, onion and dates for 1 - 2 minutes.
  • Add the jalapeño, Romano pepper, tomato, sweet potato and Peruvian spices, then fry for 2 more minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Toast the pumpkin seeds
3
  • In the meantime, prepare the stock and then add it to the vegetables, along with the lentils and the cumin.
  • Boil for 1 minute, then lower the heat and cover with the lid. Allow to simmer for 10 - 13 minutes, stirring occasionally. 
  • Heat a clean frying pan over high heat and toast the pumpkin seeds until they start to pop. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Roughly chop the coriander.
Serve
4
  • Zest the lime. Cut half of the lime into wedges and juice the rest into a small bowl.
  • To the rice, add the coriander and (per person) 1 tbsp lime juice and 1 tsp lime zest. Mix well to combine. 
  • Serve the rice and the stew in bowls or deep plates.
  • Top with the sour cream, then garnish with the pumpkin seeds and the reserved jalapeño. Serve with the lime wedges.
