The Greek Orthodox Church Lent fasting starts in a few weeks (which is basically eating vegan for 6 weeks), so I thought since I have to eat vegan, I'd try some new recipes. I made this today and I absolutely love it. The smells coming out of the Instant Pot were amazing! I had a huge bowl and have 7 more huge bowls in the freezer now. Maybe I can eat plant-based after all!
I also make this dish at least once a week now, my family loooooooove it !!!!! So grateful for this recipe !!!! I add 3 soaked sun dried tomatoes which goes in the blender and also 1teaspoon cacao and 100ml red wine ... just thought I'd share my addition :)
This was the first recipe I tried when I got my instant pot. It would greatly benefit from sauteeing the vegetables first to mellow and deepen the flavors. Holy raw garlic, Batman.
Chef AJ - you are an inspiration to me and so many others!
Thank you so much for your labor of love in teaching others about whole-food, plant based eating.
My wife loves your show ladies, and she wanted to let you know that the way she stops her eyes from stinging and crying while chopping onions, is she spritzes the chopping board with a white vinegar first, it somehow stops it and no need for goggles!
Thank you, Hunter. I’m going to give that a try. 💕
I just made this and it was so good. Hubby even loved it! Thanks AJ! Fist time I used my new Instant Pot.
Cheryl Butler I’m so happy you like it!
After watching this episode I just had to buy an instant pot. I made this recipe and I Loved it!! I did have to add salt and pepper. I highly suggest making it. This was my first recipe I made in my instant pot. Thank you Chef AJ
Thank you for this awesome sounding recipe. I got a 6 quart DUO Instant Pot a few weeks ago and as soon as I finish one batch of pressure cooked goodness, I make another. It's crazy to spend ten minutes on prep work for a gallon of chili and it cooks in only half an hour, including cooking the beans I soaked overnight (or not!), and a large part of that small amount of time is the natural cool down at the end. That's a small investment in time to have wholesome inexpensive home cooked meals for a week.
I've been intending to make some lentils in the Instant Pot. I was considering an Indian curried lentil dish, or dal bhat. I'll be trying this lentil chili recipe as soon as I get some smoked paprika. I liked the recipe instructions. Place everything in a crock pot for eight hours, or cook it in the instant pot for ten minutes. Gee, which should I do? :-) The recipes I've moved from the crock pot to the Instant Pot taste better.
I'm also eager to try the faux Parmesan.
I just found out about your channel. I'm already hooked! You two gals are a delight to watch and make wonderful recipes. I'm one of those "fast-food" vegans, eating way too much flour and carbs. Thank you for helping me turn that around.
I use my blender and my pressure cooker almost daily! Those two appliances has made plant-based eating so much easier and delicious (and I'm a newbie.) Thanks for another great recipe, I know I'm going to love it!
Oh and P.S. I love the idea of a Pressure Cooker Cookbook too! :)
I have made this several times and it is amazing. Actually just had some for lunch today that I had in the freezer.
I appreciate the quick response. So I read my manual last night and it said that beans expand and not to go over the 1/2 point mark or 2/3 mark when filling it for other stuff. I decided to just cook it on the stove then I thought why not divide the pot. So i put half in the instant for 10 min then put the other half in for 10 min. So it worked mine was a little soupier than yours but the taste was good. I think my mistake was that I rinsed my lentils which I probably shouldn't have as the lentils were mainly mush.
Thank you ladies! The flavor of this dish is out of the world. The peppers and the dates really make. Going onto the rotation!
Chef AJ and Jules~ Thanks for another entertaining flick promoting nutrient-dense, healthful recipes! Your sweet/sour, fire-roasted, spicy, and flavorful masterpiece will redefine intensity and tantalize my palate. I love legumes even more than Ms. Hever; so, I look forward to consuming several cups on sweet potatoes and kale after snowshoeing in sub-zero temps! Head bowed in satiation.... Namaste! ~Doc Madness, CWC | ND | PhD...from mystical, magical Boulder, CO.
You are too kind! Please come to HTLA 5 next November with Dr. McDougall.
OMG I love Chef AJ!! Great recipes, really a BIG help with my journey.
Thank you so much for all the recipes and for sharing your story.
This is an awesome recipe. I made it in the crock pot. The left overs get better everyday!!!
LOL! I like the 80's and stove top. Thanks for letting your viewers know the cooking options. I don't need another pot in my kitchen lol! So glad your chili didn't call for any added beans or rice. Thnx again.
I recently got my Instant Pot and this was the first real recipe I tried in it. Mainly because this is the only recipe in the book that it came with by Chef AJ :) If you made a recipe book entirely for the Instant Pot, I would buy it in a heartbeat.
If you wanted the chili a little less runny, could you use less water...say 6 cups instead of 7?
Will definitely take your idea with combining the spices though to save time for whenever I make this (which will probably be quite often). Look forward to more episodes with the Instant Pot. I figure if all I used it for was to cook beans, it will probably pay for itself in 6 months...even though it's technically a Xmas gift...shhhh.
That is a great suggestion!
holy hell, i would love that!!!
I love this chili I made it today for Thanksgiving.... THANK YOU!
Chef AJ & Julieanna, THANK YOU for your great videos and recipes. You guys have such great chemistry and I have enjoyed following you since watching Forks Over Knives a couple years back. After watching this episode and a couple others I have decided to take the plunge & buy a pressure cooker... can't thank you enough for the discount code that you provided in your video! I pre-ordered the 7/1 model and am paying less than I would for the 6/1 model on Amazon! You guys rock :)
I can't get enough of Chef AJ!
You are too kind!
Love the idea to make your own special spice jar to make dinner quicker... You can also take them with you when you travel, assuming you take the instant pot with you.
Indeed!
I use this recipe not only for lentils but also for a bean mix and split peas. Adding a couple of tablespoons of dried and powdered stinging nettle to the cooking chilli gives it a different nutritious flavour.
One of my fav recipes, I never thought of using dates, I used brown sugar, but, will try the dates, so good for you than brown sugar. I use the taco seasoning, because I like the flavor. I make enough red lentil chili for 5 days, love over rice, for a quick meal.
Just made this today... me and the family love it! Thanks for the super tasty recipe!
It's fantastic! I was really impressed that I didn't need to add any salt to it. I will be making this chili again and again!
Looks good. I like having foods simmering on the stove. I don't find it '80's' in a negative way. Women used to stay in shape by chopping, kneading, stirring..not just getting everything in a bag and cooking it as fast as you can! It's a lovely kitchen when things are simmering ❤️❤️❤️
This looks amazing! I just became a "born again" vegetarian and I am working my way up to being 100% plant based vegan. Your videos are great! Thank you so much.
Just put a cut up lemon in IP and run for 10-15 min in lots of water. Sit overnight. Run again in am. CLEAN
I love the taste of this chili very much, however, I find it just a bit too sloppy, too "liquidy". Not sure if I did something wrong. By the way, for the instant pot lid, I have always removed the rubber gasket, the tiny metal cover from the inside, and the sealing knob and I put it all in the dishwasher (including the entire lid) with no problem at all.
Wow, this sounds amazing! I am trying to find more ways to eat healthy and help my family beat the diseases that come from poor choices! Thanks now I need a pressure cooker!
I love the spice jar idea!!!
Saw you on Plant Based News' video 100 Most influential vegans of 2017 (Part1) and I fell in love with you after hearing what you said. Made sure to find your channel here and then subbed. Thank you for doing what you do.
Love my Instant Pot pressure cooker, thanks to you! xoxox
This chili is so good! I could eat it every day!
THANK YOU
Recipe was amazing!! Grest job ladies!
Mmm I've been looking for a lentil recipe. Gonna try this one soon!
I love this series! I just got the Instant Pot and will be making your recipes :D
:)
you are both gorgeous and awesome.... I'm so grateful for these amazing and delicious recipes!!!! I know it will be heavenly!!!
Yummy! I'm going to try this😜 ...I will eat this alone, so I think I'm going to divide the recipe in half or three..instant pot time would be the same even for smaller amount? 10 minutes?
thank you💕
First time I’ve ever seen u Chef A J,,,I am impressed with your Vitality,,I am from Auckland N Z ,I am interested in those books u showed in another video
People who complain about chili being bland, think about it as a Lenten vegetable soup and add fresh pressed garlic in the end ( no cooking)
Can you use a food processor or blender instead of the Vitamix? Also, how long does it take to cook in a pot on a gas stove?
I am making this right now minus the dates (lower calories). Will have it with brown rice. Thanks Chef AJ and Julianna! :)
Hi *****. I made it a few times so far. turned out very nice. Thank you for the recipe. This has become one of my staples. :)
+Chef AJ No, I have not but will check them out. Thanks for the tip. :)
Premade spice jar is brilliant! No dates or ACV for me. Sweet & sour not my thing. Going to make this. Holding out for a killer price on 8-quart IP.
finally got an IP. Went with 6-quart. Will try this soon. First gotta try your mushroom chili!
What size Instant Pot are you using Dr. AJ? I'm thinking of investing in one soon. Looks delicious!
I just made chili today so will have to try this one soon.Iagree on the fire roasted tomatoes :) I did cook my beans in the pressure cooker (old Tefal I've had for over 25 years), I used pressure 2 but still not perfect, they are either over done or under done. The Tefal book does not give individual legume times and sources online vary so much. Do you have a good guide you could point me to?
I just use the book that came with the Instant Pot or one of my pressure cooking cookbooks by Nussinow or Sass
lol i love how she just put a ton of seasonings in. i don't understand people who just put little pinches of them in a big a$$ pot
I keep getting "food burn" on my instant pot. I do have the the 5.7Litre model. I use same recipe/ measurements with a little less water. Any advice please?
During this video you talked about doing steel cut oats in the pressure cooker. I have made them in the pressure cooker but always with some oil, because I am afraid of sticking to the pot. Could you post your recipe for Oats without oil? thanks
Can't wait to try this looks delicious
I still have my mom's old pressure cooker, which I haven't used since the 90's. I was always afraid it would blow up, lol! Will definitely look into the "Instant Pot". A ten-minute meal? Right up my alley.
YT4Me57 LOL!!!!
We love your Red Lentil Chilli and have made it several times. However I have a problem. This is the only recipe that I have tried that I usually get a BURN warning when making it. Am I doing something wrong?
That sometimes happen when you use the saute feature before turning on the pressure.
I got an instant pot duo mini for Xmas and I was trying out the Red Lentil Chili recipe by chef AJ in the recipe book that came with it, however, I am told in the recipe to (1) blend dates, garlic, red bell pepper and tomatoes in a blender until smooth. (2) Place remaining ingredients in the instant pot and cook on high pressure for 10 min. (3) Let press release naturally or enjoy immediately. Serve over a baked potato and sprinkle with some faux parmesan. There is no instruction in the recipe to add the contents of the blender to the instant pot--which would not work with an Instant pot duo Mini--there might be room for 2-3 more cups of liquid but definitely not 7 cups. I had to go to my computer and watch AJ & the Dietician make Red Lentil Chili to find out that I had to add the contents of the blender to the instant pot. One would think that that is pretty important step to leave out or maybe it is just assumed that one would know, however, sometimes not all of us are that bright!!
You put it in the IP with the remaining ingredients
UMMM JULIEANNA AND CHEF AJ IN THE SAME ROOM UMMMM YAS QUEEEEEEENS
Oh wait, I thought this was an instapot bcuz I saw another video that mentioned your name, your recipe. They altered the ingredients. I was just given a pressure cooker. I have no idea howe to use it. But I think this chili will be the first thing I try it out with.
OMG I'm super excited to try this.
do you soak the red lentils prior to cooking them???
Nope
Beans and Greens!!!! Great Title!!!! @chefaj
That chili looks awesome, I HAVE to make it soon! Thank you both for sharing. :o)
If you cant eat tomatoes, what is a substitute?
I tried this and it was OK. I thought the flavors were sort of one dimensional though compared to other chili recipes I've tried. But then I'm not Vegan or vegetarian.
Cutest intro!
I bet Cilantro would be a good garnish!
Hi Chef Aj can I freeze this chili after it is done?
Yes you can
Thank you getting back to me!
It seems like you put a lot of effort into four series. However you could benefit greatly from external microphones. It is more difficult than it should be to hear you.
Also, the method described in this video doesn't match the recipe published in your video and my Instant Pot manual. You said to add the apple cider vinegar. The receptor didn't make it clear that both the diced tomatoes and tomato paste go in the blender. I would have had the vinegar or tomato paste in my purée if I hadn't watched your video.
The chili smelled great going into the Instant Pot and is cooking now (6 minutes left).
Thanks for the recipe!
Please help me with suggestions! I made this recipe and would like to know how to cut the acid taste from the apple cider vinegar. I also think it might have contributed to the red lentils not fully cooking. I CAN'T THROW THIS OUT! HOW CAN I SAVE IT? Next time, I'll eliminate it and saute the vegetables first. Thank you for this recipe, but I still need to tweak it just a bit.
Simply delicious!
Can I cook this on the stove? Would I add the lentils in right away?
Yes, you can add them straight away and cook for about 20-30 minutes.
Thank you x 1billion...I was speaking to someone about getting a pressure cooker but not knowing how to use it. I’m going to get the cooker and recipe 🤗
On sale today on Amazon
CHEF AJ purchased!!
Great!
You girls are great to watch !
thanks for another great supper idea!
The dietician has got a great laugh!
Do you have a suggestion for a sub for the dates? I react digestively to dates for some reason.
Oh I’ve never rinsed my lentils they absorb too much water
I do rinse the lentils and just use slightly less water. Also I roast my bell pepper, onion and garlic in the oven prior to blending 😋Delicious!
Noticed you used boiling water, however, instant pot cooker recipe doesn't call for boiling water, wondering why you used boiling water.
Also, I noticed you blended the apple cider vinegar in with the tomato mixture, recipe book doesn't call for that either, wondering why you chose to.
What are your thoughts on blending the spices in with the Tomato mixture?
Finally, using this recipe I'm getting the burn warning. Thoughts?
Don't know why you got a burn warning. Did you put the water in first? I boiled it so it would cook faster.
can u explain the sugar content of fruit and beans for those people who r watching sugar intake..
Chef AJ u look great in your chef jacket💯🤗
Thank you!
CPT specialist sports nutrition plant based nutrition energy 25 years just ordered a pressure cooker
Awwww! You guys are so cute!❤️
I noticed you just tipped the lentils straight in without washing them. Arent they best soaked for half an hour and washed?
you can if you like
love the way you talk and make cooking so fast and easy. but why do you use processed tomatoes instead of fresh ones ? coming home from work, no time to cook is not a food excuse to use processed food. i would rather throw in few fresh whole tomatoes into the pot.
If you want to use fresh tomatoes, just do it. I don't have many processed foods in my pantry, but canned organic tomatoes and beans I do have, even though I often use fresh beans.
I tried this in my 6 quart and found that the recipe filled it to the 2/3 line. I'm assuming I need a larger instant pot for this recipe?
I prefer the 8 but it fits in the 6
I wish she would at beginning mention the size of here Instapot because I realized to late that it's too much for my 6qt
Donna Keegan I almost always use the 8 quart it’s my favorite size because you can always do a smaller recipe in a big one but you can’t do a bigger recipe in a smaller one. That said I have done the red lentil chili in the 6 quart it just will be very full
where can i find the nutritional facts for this. My daughter is counting calories and wants to know before she will eat any. I have it in my crockpot and the house smells amazing :O)
www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=nutritional+information
Type in the ingredients of the recipe separated by plus signs (examples are given on the page) and it'll produce a nutritional label like the ones you see on packages of food in the supermarket. Very cool. Wolfram Alpha has many neat features. It's kinda like Google, but more geared toward calculating stuff, and it has a huge database so you can ask it crazy questions and it knows the answers.
Made this today. It's flavorless mush!
"All vinegars are alkalizing" - ??? - not everyone would agree... I avoid smoked stuff and fire-roasted. Just sayin'... Overall, sounds like a great recipe!
what if I don't have and can't afford a pressure cooker but I want to make this recipe?
you can make it in a slow cooker. Walmart has them for under $20. costco sells pressure cookers, Cuisinart brand, for $69
Where is the seasoning ingredients?
Please check the show notes
High carb?
Yum!!!!!
The Tortilla Chips video is Episode 30.
Tried this recipe, but it turned out soupy. Definitely should go for 6 rather than 7 cups of water. Did seem a little bland for me. Did anyone else encounter the same issue? I double checked the recipe.
came out thick for me
In ethnic stores ha 🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
Kimberly Rodriguez right! When I heard her say that I was like WTF? 🤦🏻♀️ smh
💜😇💜
3.06 i would do that the the dietician..
I see why she considers herself the dietitian, she hasn't done a thing only help the chef , great diet however .
