1.
Wash the vegetables. Peel and finely chop the onion, garlic and mushrooms. Dissolve the vegetable broth in 1/2 litre of hot water. Drain and wash the lentils.

Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a pot and sauté the onion over high heat for 3 minutes until it starts to turn dark brown. Add the garlic, the mushrooms, the spice mix, the fresh thyme leaves and the rice. Mix everything for 1 minute. Add the hot vegetable broth and season to taste. Let it simmer for 15 minutes and then add the lentils. Cook for another 10 minutes until the rice is completely cooked.
