Cooking instructions

* Step 1

After cutting the beef into 1 inch long strips, season to taste with the French Picnic sea salt (about 1/2 teaspoon).

* Step 2

Heat a 2-quart, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Add enough cooking oil to lightly coat the pan. Add beef, and brown without stirring for 2-3 minutes. Flip beef over, add mushrooms, and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Stir in onions and garlic, and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Add carrots and cook for 3-4 more minutes, while stirring.

* Step 3

Add tomato sauce, beef stock, herbs, lentils and water. Stir to combine, and bring to a boil. Stir well, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Uncover, stir well, and add 1 teaspoon of French Picnic sea salt. Cover again, and cook for 15-20 minutes more, or until lentils and beef are both tender.
