Lentil ragú with tagliatelle and Parmesan

As we all know, French cuisine shines for its stews or ragouts. According to the Dictionary of the French Academy, a ragout, or ragoût, is meat prepared in sauce. The term has its origins in a word that means to give taste or awaken desire. In this recipe, we aim to give taste and hopefully awaken desire without the presence of meat. This ragout is a 100% vegetarian dish with lentils as the main protein.
