Ancho is a dried chili originally from Mexico. When fresh it is called a pablano.

 

Instructions

1

Dice the onion.

Mince the garlic.

Strain and rinse the lentils.

2

Remove the core and dice the tomato.

Roughly chop the jalapeno.

Roughly chop the coriander.

Mix tomato, coriander and jalapeno in a bowl, season with salt and a splash of olive oil.

Taste and add more salt, as needed.

Peel and grate the carrot.

Cut the avocado in half, remove the stone, scoop out the flesh and slice.

3

Put a large frypan on medium heat to preheat with a little oil. Saute the onion for 4 minutes with a little salt. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.

Add the ancho tomato paste and cook for another 30 seconds.

Add the lentils and a few splashes of water. Mash the lentil mix with a potato masher or the back of a fork. Continue to mash, adding more water if it is looking too dry.

4

Warm the tacos in a hot pan for a few seconds on each side, adding a few splashes of water to help soften them.

5

Serve ancho lentils in tacos with jalapeno pico, carrot and avocado on top.

Enjoy.
