Madhurs Green Lentils With Lemon Slices Recipes

Steps:

• Bring lentils and 3 cups water to a boil in a heavy-bottomed pan. Cook, partially covered, until very tender, 40 to 45 minutes. Stir in salt and cilantro; remove from heat. Add 8 lemon slices; stir to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl; set aside.
• Heat oil in a small saute pan over medium-high heat; add mustard seeds. After a few seconds, seeds should begin to pop; add chiles. When chiles have darkened, add garlic; stir to combine. Top lentils with mustard seed mixture.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the lentils until tender, 20 to 45 minutes. Check often because the cooking time varies depending on the age of the lentils. Drain and set aside. In a medium-size non-reactive skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat, then cook the Swiss chard until it wilts, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and drain off any liquid. Set aside. In the same skillet heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cilantro and cook until sizzling, 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to medium, add the Swiss chard, drained lentils and water and cook for 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the lemon juice and pomegranate molasses and continue cooking until the lentils look mushy, about another 10 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle a small amount of olive oil over it before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan and add the onions, garlic and bay leaf. Cook, stirring, until the onions are lightly browned.
• Add the lentils, water, cinnamon, Tabasco, lemon juice, skin and pulp, ginger and salt. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes until tender and most of the moisture is removed. Do not overcook. Remove the bay leaf and sprinkle with coriander. Serve hot.
