sauce, this is it. In a large nonstick sauce pan over medium heat add
onions mushrooms and garlic adding a bit of water to prevent
sticking. Cook until tender, about 5 min. Add lentils and water.
Bring to a boil stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and cover
and cook for 40 min. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
