Directions

Prep 15 minCook 45 min
  1. 1

    Prepare the rice and lentils according to their package instructions.

    In a large pot or skillet, heat one-fourth of the vegan butter over medium-high heat. Add the diced potatoes and season with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Stir in the tomato sauce, vegetable broth, coconut milk, lemon juice, spices, and agave. Combine well.

  6. 6

    Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are soft and the sauce thickens.
