Instructions:

- Next, add the garlic, carrot and celery and cook for another 3-4 minutes.

- Add the vegetable broth, potatoes, peas, lentils and seasoning and mix everything together.
- Cover and let simmer on medium-low for 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Fill little ramekins, or a big baking dish 3/4 of the way full with the filling, and then top with puff pastry.
