Type: Fish
Courses: Soup
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 cup 237mlDried lentils
1 lb 454g / 16ozCod fillet - cut 1" squares
  Lots of diced vegetables - (carrots,
  Potatoes, celery, green beans, tomatoes)
1/4 cup 59mlOrange juice
2 tablespoons 30mlSunflower or green olive oil
1 tablespoon 15mlDried parsley
1   Bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlFreshly-ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlThyme
1/8 teaspoon 0.6mlTarragon

Recipe Instructions

Place the lentils and 5 cups of cold water into a slow cooker (about 4 quart or 4 litre size) or crock pot. Cook on low overnight.

At breakfast, add the spices, oil, and enough vegetables to fill the pot to no closer than 3 inches below the top. Then add enough cold water to cover everything, plus 1/2 inch. Cook on low for 5 hours.

Add the fish (the fish should be completely immersed in the liquid), and then cook on low for another 4 to 5 hours.

A few minutes before serving, remove the bay leaf and mix in the orange juice. Serve with salad and whole grain bread.

Variations: Substitute haddock, pollock, hake, cusk, clams, or lean back bacon (diced) for some or all of the cod. Back bacon should be put in the slow cooker in step #2, at the same time as the vegetables.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
