Chili look delicious but strange to have dates in it…. Does it not get to Sweet?
Is this the Chili that made the tiny house?
I just like the fact he said "blend this shit up". Made my viewing even more worth while. 😉 thanks all for the extensive entertainment. Haha
1 LB of red lentils or 2 cups
2 cans of fire roasted diced tomatoes
1 can of tomato paste or about 2 1/2 tbsp
1 red onion
2 large red bell peppers
3 ounces of pitted dates
8 cloves of garlic
4 tbs of apple cider vinegar
1.5 tbsp of parsley, oregano
1.5 tsp chili powder
2 tsp of paprika
Set instant pot on manual 25 minutes let it naturally release for 20 minutes
I found your red lentils chili. Boy this must have been a long time ago. Adorable guys. 💜
Made this recipe and loved it!
Could you blend the onions with everything else?
once you cut the onion once…rince them under water and rub the cut sides together and it won't make you cry! Works every time for me 🙂
I'm going to try this recipe – just got the pot for Xmas
Microwave the onion for 20-30 seconds and you won't cry
why giving up coffe? it is healthy if it grind fresh
I think it might be a good idea to pour the water into the blender container after you have poured most of the contents into the iPot that way it cleans out the mixture in the blender and gets most of it into the iPot.
Yum!!!
If you cry while cutting onions it means that your knife needs sharpening.
Migraines are nit just bad pain. I have migraines and don't like when people are up walking around saying they have a migraine! I am down in bed as are many others who suffer migraines, these are no laughing matter. I can't stand noise, light, my head feels like someone shot a side of it off ( burning/throbbing), my actual appearance changes, nausea/throwing up, body pain, the list goes on. Here's a symptom list of migraines
Pain areas: in the face or neck
Pain types: can be dull
Headache: can be acute, frequent, severe, or throbbing
Whole body: dizziness, lightheadedness, or malaise
Sensory: sensitivity to light, aura, or sensitivity to sound
Gastrointestinal: nausea or vomiting
Visual: distorted vision or seeing flashes of light
Also common: irritability, nasal congestion, or scalp tenderness
Great recipe, Derek. Two tips. First. Please wash the lentils, beans and rice before you cook. They are incredibly dirty. They've been in silos, transported in trucks and run through all kinds of machinery to get bagged. They have had mice and rats in them and lots of dirt and dust from the picking and transporting procedure. You don't want to eat all the dust and dirt and animal feces.
Secondly, to avoid the eye probs from cutting onion; run the onion pieces, and the knife, under cool water while making those first cuts and peeling. All that juice that comes to the surface is what is making your eyes hurt/cry. I never have that reaction any more. If you keep a colander in the sink while you cut up the onion, it makes it easy. Just throw in the parts you want to rinse while you are cutting it up. Let the water/spray rinse it/the parts.
I like this though it would help if we had the ingredients in the description below the video.
Do you guys still use Periscope??
Take your garlic…put it in a hard container…close it…shake the crap out of it…boom…all separated from the paper skins.
I ended up adding peanuts to this, and it came out pretty good.. nice surprise in random bites!
It helps to not have your face over the onion when slicing it. Slice it as far away from you as possible. 🙂
I've been using an electric pressure cooker for the last 5 years and absolutely love it! I don't have the patience to stand over a watched pot, however, the pressure cooker allows me to set the time and pressure, and walk away!
If making this in a crock pot, is it only cook time that changes?
you had me at "here you wanna see my boob"!
chef aj is a gem!
chef AJ ROCKS !! met her once, I have her book "Unprocessed " big potato fan
Next time put some of the water in the vitamix, turn it on and pour it in the pot. It will be some of your 7 cups.
I need to try this…don't have an instant pot, but that shant deter me! 😀 much love and positive vibes!
Re-watching to give your recipe a go, I thought you added curry paste or something to it? Was sure I seen that in another video. Or am I thinking of a diff recipe all together? lol
This is my fav.but, red lentils are hard to find in my area, only found 4 sm bags in a radius of 60 miles! Thank goodness for online shopping. I made a few changes, I just use the taco seasoning that our local grocery store makes, and a jar of whole peppers that is in seasoned brim. Love this over balsamic rice, eat 5X a week, at least! This is so handy during the busy summer months, just go to the ref and spoon out 1/3 bowl of rice and top with lentil chili, warm, or, I like cold on hot days! Thanks for posting! Passed this on to a friend that needs some life style changes
You know you can cook any red lentil recipe on normal stove top in 30 minutes? I've got stove top pressure cooker and, no shit, cooks my red lentil chilli in 10 minutes. I think this Instant Pot is … a crock!
Guys please wash those lentils if they aren't prewashed!! Lentils are incredibly dirty…
Damn, tried to make this tonight. I didn't calculate that the amount of water you used was probably because how quickly your instant pot cooks. I put this recipe in my rice cooker that is a slow cooker too. It was too much water, more like soup now. I am going to have to just buy an instant pot soon, it looks so cool!
This is so good, guys. Just made it, and it tastes awesome! Added some no salt boullion powder for extra taste, though.
If you toss the whole bulb of garlic in a jar and shake, the skin will come off. Put the cloves back in the jar and shake again, and the skins come off the cloves. 😀
you could take some of the seven cups water to rinse out the blender
Chef AJs original recipe says to cook for 10 min any reason you bump it up to 25?
For the onions. Don't breathe through your nose but trough your mouth and don't put your head right above them and stand more upright 😉
Hi, love the video! Can u tell me what pot u r using? Tx
Wow, that is crazy that caffeine withdrawal influences your wellbeing that much. :/ During exam period I drank like 4 cups a day for a couple of weeks, but I never felt bad after I stopped.
To all those who are struggling with this, get well soon!
I'm trying this! I love my IP. I make up a metric ton of food lkike soups and chilis with the IP and Crock pot and freeze it, then reheat it later. Makes my life easy
Hannah, I love you, but you need more shirts. Lol! Just one or two more. It's time to hit a thrift store girl.
Sorry, I planned to post a pick. We got excited and forgot to post before we ate it.😄
Just made a pot of this. I don't have an instant pot so I'm just making it on the stove top. Looks like it will work. I'll post some pics on the fb page. Smells awesome! 🍜
can i make this in a regular pot and just cook it longer?
tips for cutting onions: run your knife under cold water and when you cut the onions don't blink or look away. 👍
P. S you guys rock😆
I'm not sure if you guys sort & rinse your lentils… But I'd recommend that you do!! Last time I ate lentils I didn't rinse them or sort them and I bit into a pebble, didn't feel so good! Hope that doesn't happen to you guys
That movie was INSANE. <3
Onion cutting tip! When your eyes start to burn, stick your head in the freezer with your eyes open. I promise it works, and you can look ridiculous at the same time!
