Do you like lentils fabemmy? If so then this recipe is worth a go. I got it off the internet ages ago but saved the recipe because I love it - it is dead easy to make and really wholesome.
100g puy lentils
1 bay leaf
150g green beans, trimmed & sliced into fourths
1 carrot, peeled & sliced
1 stick celery, diced
2 tbsp coriander, roughly chopped
1 small red onion, chopped
75g feta, crumbled
2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
1 tbsp rice vinegar
salt & pepper
1) Place the lentils in a saucepan with the bay leaf and 250ml of water. Bring to a boil, cover, lower the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender. Discard the bay leaf, drain the lentils, and leave them to cool.
2) While the lentils are cooking, chop the beans, carrot and celery. Put them in a steamer for about 10 minutes or blanch them in boiling water for about 1 minute - they should be crisp, crunchy and bright in colour.
3) Toss all of the cooked ingredients, along with the coriander, onion and feta in a medium sized bowl. Whisk together the sesame oil and rice vinegar and dress the salad. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
(Serves 2 as a main dish or 4 as a starter.)
This is how it appeared on the website but I tend to alter it a little to suit my taste ie I sometimes reduce the amount of sesame oil or don't use it at all because it can be a bit overpowering. I just use regular oil.
Hope you like it.
