Directions

1. Rinse the lentils under cold water and drain well.
2. Peel the sweet potato if desired and dice into small cubes.
3. Combine diced sweet potato and rinsed lentils in a large skillet or saucepan and add enough water to cover by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
4. Reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook 18–22 minutes, until the sweet potato is tender and the lentils are cooked through.
5. Drain thoroughly, then return the mixture to the dry skillet over medium heat and cook 2–3 minutes, stirring, to evaporate excess moisture.
6. Stir in the cinnamon, thyme, and salt, and cook 2–3 minutes more, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and lightly browned in spots.
