Add carrots and potatoes and stir for a few minutes. Add broth, spices and lentils. Bring to a boil, lower heat to a slow simmer, over and simmer for 30-40 minutes until lentils and potatoes are soft. Optional: blend with a hand blender to make a smooth stew. Optional garnish: I like a dollop of sour cream or vegan Tofutti sour "cream" on top.
