Notes
Several quantities are obscured or only partially legible in the carousel OCR, including the onion, carrot, red pepper paste, olive oil, and lemon juice. The post description explicitly supplies 1 cup red lentils. The source says to pressure-cook for 4–5 minutes but does not specify whether this timing begins at pressure or which pressure setting to use.
