Then simmer on low heat till almost all water is absorbed and lentils are well cooked. Add in extra water if longer time is needed. To make the sauce, first saute/fry the garlic in 1 Tbsp. oil till golden brown. Add in both cans of tomato sauce and simmer 10-15 min. Add in water and vinegar and bring to a boil. Remove from heat immediately and add in salt to taste. Finally, slice onion in thin, small pcs and saute/fry in remaining 1 Tbsp. oil till brown and crispy.
