Pomegranate lentils

In All Recipes, Main Dishes, posted Jun 18, 2020

What you need:

  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 400g brown lentils, rinsed
  • Salt, pepper
  • Vegetable broth
  • 6 tablespoons or more 100% pomegranate sauce
  • 1 cup walnuts, grated 
  • Garnish with fresh pomegranate (optional)

 

How to make it:

  1. Heat up an oil in the pot, add onion and cook till tender. (Add splash of water to prevent the onion from burning)
  2. Add lentils, cover with vegetable broth (keep the lentils submerged adding more vegetable broth if you need to). Add salt and pepper and cook till lentils are tender.
  3. Mix in grated walnuts.
  4. Mix in pomegranate sauce.
  5. Taste it and add more seasoning or pomegranate sauce if you desire.
  6. Garnish with fresh pomegranate

 

Serve with mash potatoes or bulgur.

 

Notes:

 

This recipe makes 3 – 4 portions.

You can freeze the leftover meal.

 

Buy your beans & legumes in a bulk shop (if available) or in the biggest possible packaging in order to reduce your waste. I always cook my beans/chickpeas in advance and I store them portioned in the freezer.

 

 

When you make it take a picture and post it in our community chat. Would love to see it.
