You will need:
70g red lentils 1 white onion 1 clove of garlic Olive oil 1 tsp ground cumin a pinch of chilli flakes 100g frozen peas 2 handfuls of fresh spinach leaves 20g salted butter What to do: 1. Boil a litre of water in the kettle 2. Add the boiled water to the pan 3. Add the red lentils to the pan 4. Boil the lentils for 10 minutes 5. Turn down the heat to low and let the lentil simmer for another 15 minutes until they are soft 6. Chop 1 white onion 7. Crush or finely chop 1 clove of garlic 8. Next you need a large frying pan. Add 2 tbsp of oil to it 9. Add the chopped onion to the pan and cook gently on a medium heat 10. Chop the spinach leaves up 11. When the onion is see through, add the chopped garlic and 1 tsp cumin, and a pinch of chilli flakes 12. The lentils should be ready - they should be gloopy. Pour them into the pan with the onion and mix it all together. If it's too thick add a small drop of water - you can choose how thick you like it but I like it sludgey. Keep it on a low heat. 12. Add the frozen peas and mix 13. Add the spinach leaves and mix 14. Stir in the salted butter 15. Pour into two bowls and eat! I love this recipe served with pitta bread or wild garlic sourdough rolls. Thank you Jazz - this is my favourite lentil recipe in the whole entire world! Comments are closed.
