Using a food processor, pulse dry uncooked lentils until partially chopped and chunky. Set aside. You can also skip this step and pulse the cooked end result.
Next pulse walnuts until chopped into small pieces. Set aside.
In a large pan over medium heat, sauté chopped onion in oil or broth until onion begins to get translucent. About 5 minutes.
Add walnuts and sauté 3 more minutes until mixture begins to caramelize.
Add chopped lentils to the pan and sauté for 1 minute.
Add 3 ½ cups veggie broth and spices and mix well.
Cook covered for 10-15minutes until lentils have softened and broth is almost gone.
Uncover and sauté until all broth is gone and mixture begins to brown and get dry, about 3 minutes. If you prefer, pulse once cooled a bit instead of at the beginning.
Serve however you please!
