LENTIL-TOMATO SAUCE
Rich and hearty, this sauce adds extra fiber -- not to mention flavor -- to pasta. If you want to freeze this sauce, don't add the yogurt; to serve, reheat gently and stir in the yogurt just before tossing the sauce with the pasta.

LENTILS AND TOMATO SAUCE WITH MACARONI AND FRIED ONIONS
Always on the lookout for a good vegetarian recipe, I found this in Joy of Cooking. The whole family loved it -- even my picky husband -- and it's a good way to use up the lentils I always have left over after making lentil soup. Although the recipe calls for 3 cups of water, I highly recommend using 2 cups of vegetable broth and 1 cup of water to give this dish a richer flavor.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the diced onions and cook, stirring, until the onions are golden brown, about 20 minutes, being careful not to let them get too dark. Remove half of the onions and reserve. Stir the garlic into the remaining onions and cook for 1 minute.
- Stir the lentils and water (or water/broth combo) into the onion mixture. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the lentils are tender, about 25 minutes.
- Stir in the tomatoes, cumin, coriander, and allspice. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Uncover and simmer, stirring to break up the tomatoes, until the mixture is thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water until tender but firm, about 10 minutes. Drain. Quickly dry the pasta cooking pot and add the reserved onions along with the cumin seeds. Cook, stirring over medium-high heat until the onions are sizzling. Add the drained macaroni and stir to combine. Taste and adjust the seasonings. To serve, spoon the macaroni into individual bowls and top with a ladleful of the spiced lentils. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes to taste, if desired.
SPAGHETTI WITH LENTILS, TOMATO AND FENNEL
There are many recipes for pasta with lentils, a multitude of which are thick and stewlike, more lentil than pasta. This one emphasizes the pasta. The hearty lentil topping is a bit like a Bolognese ragù, and the addition of fennel - seeds, bulb and chopped green fronds - gives it surprising brightness and zest. For even more flavor, add some of your stored-away Parmesan rinds to the sauce. (Carnivores can add a little chopped anchovy or Italian fennel sausage.)

Steps:
- Rinse lentils. Put them in a saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch. Toss in Parmesan rind, if using. Add a good pinch of salt and place over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cook until soft, about 30 minutes. Drain lentils and reserve cooking water.
- As lentils cook, put 3 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is wavy, add diced onion and fennel, and season with salt and pepper. Add fennel seeds and red-pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until softened and slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes.
- Add garlic, passata and 2 or 3 tablespoons finely chopped fennel fronds. Stir to combine and add drained lentils. Turn heat to medium and simmer for 10 minutes or so, until somewhat thickened. Taste and correct seasoning, then cook for 5 minutes more, so the flavors meld. Add lentil cooking water as necessary to keep everything saucy.
- As sauce cooks, set a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook the spaghetti until al dente. Divide among individual bowls and ladle sauce over each serving. Top with shavings of ricotta salata and more chopped fennel fronds. Drizzle with a little extra-virgin olive oil, if desired.

Steps:
- First, make the sauce. Put the cashews and garlic in a bowl, then pour over 125ml boiling water and set aside for 5 mins. Meanwhile, put a large pan of water over a high heat. When the water is boiling rapidly, tip in the pasta and a little salt, stir once, then continue to boil for 8 mins, or following pack instructions, until the pasta is softened but still retains some bite.
- Meanwhile, add the roasted pepper and sun-dried tomatoes to the bowl with the cashews, garlic and water, then whizz with a hand blender or in a food processor to make a smooth, creamy sauce. Stir through the basil and season with black pepper.
- Drain the pasta, mix with the sauce in a large bowl, then divide between two bowls and add a handful of rocket to each.
