Recipe summary

Preparation time:
Cooking time:
Yield: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 cup du Puy lentils
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 sprig thyme
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large red onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • Splash balsamic vinegar (optional)
  • Walnut oil, to taste
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 ounces walnuts, toasted
  • 4 ounces goat cheese, broken into pinches

Directions

  1. Put the lentils in a saucepan with the bay leaf and thyme. Pour over 1-1/3 cups/375 ml water, bring to a boil, then simmer until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. All the liquid should be absorbed by the time they’re done, if not simply drain off any excess.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a sauté pan and fry the onion until soft. Add the garlic for one minute, then deglaze the pan with a splash of balsamic vinegar. When the lentils are cooked, toss them with the onion, son with salt and pepper and put them in a serving dish. Scatter over the nuts and pinches of cheese. Serve warm with roasted beetroot.
