Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ 400°F/ Gas 6
Peel and finely chop the brown onion[s]

While the onion is cooking, boil a kettle
Top, tail, peel and finely chop the carrot[s]
Dissolve the Knorr vegetable stock cube[s] in 750ml [1.4L]boiled water

Once the onion has softened, add the carrot, bay leaf[ves], puy-style lentils and vegetable stock to the pan

Chop the parsley finely, including the stalks (reserve some leaves for garnish!)
