FRENCH LENTILS WITH CHARD



French Lentils with Chard image

This hearty one-dish vegetarian meal is meant to appeal to families that include a mix of meat-eaters and vegetarians. A great pot of beans or lentils, even when you add to it a bunch of chard from the farmers' market, costs no more than $4 to make, and it feeds four to six people. This combo of lentils and greens is inspired by a classic preparation for the tasty French Le Puy green lentils that traditionally includes salt pork and/or bacon and sausage. For this vegetarian version, I don't insist on Le Puy lentils, although I highly recommend them. Meat eaters in the family might want to accompany this with sausage, cooked separately or with the lentils. I recommend topping the lentils with goat cheese or feta.

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 pound lentils, preferably imported green lentils, washed and picked over 2 1/4 cups
A bouquet garni made with 2 bay leaves, a Parmesan rind and a sprig or two each of thyme and parsley
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 bunch Swiss chard (3/4 to 1 pound), stemmed, washed and coarsely chopped
Freshly grated Parmesan, crumbled goat cheese or feta for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a heavy soup pot or Dutch oven. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the carrot and celery and cook, stirring, until all the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Add the lentils, 2 quarts water and bouquet garni. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer 40 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bouquet garni.
  • Stir the chard into the simmering lentils. Cook another 10 minutes or so, until the lentils and greens are tender. The chard should be tender but still bright. Taste, adjust seasonings and serve, passing the cheese at the table for sprinkling. Alternatively, transfer to an oiled baking dish, top with rounds of goat cheese, crumbled feta or grated Parmesan, and heat through in a medium oven.

FRENCH LENTIL AND SWISS CHARD RISOTTO



French Lentil and Swiss Chard Risotto image

Lentils add an interesting textural note to this hearty dish -- and combined with Arborio rice, they form a complete protein.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Pasta and Grains     Rice Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 bay leaf
6 sprigs fresh thyme, plus 2 teaspoons leaves
1/3 cup French green lentils, picked over
1 large bunch Swiss chard (about 1 1/4 pounds)
2 large leeks (about 3/4 pound), white and light-green parts only
4 cups Homemade Chicken Stock, or canned low-sodium chicken broth, skimmed of fat
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup finely chopped onion
2 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 1/4 cups Arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup finely shredded radicchio, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine 6 cups water, bay leaf, and thyme sprigs, and bring to a boil. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add lentils, reduce heat to low, and simmer until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain lentils, discard bay leaf and thyme sprigs, and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, wash Swiss chard, and remove the leaves from the stalks. Slice the leaves into very thin 2-inch strips, and cut the smaller stems into 1/4-inch dice. Discard the larger stems. Cook Swiss chard in a wok or a large skillet over high heat, tossing constantly, until just wilted, about 3 minutes. Set aside in a colander.
  • Cut leeks in half lengthwise, and slice into very thin semicircles. Place in a large bowl of cold water, and let sit for about 5 to 10 minutes to rid them of dirt and sand. Lift out of the water, and drain in a colander. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, bring stock to a boil, reduce heat to low, and keep at a bare simmer.
  • Heat olive oil in a heavy 4-quart saucepan over medium heat; add leeks, onions, and garlic, and cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until soft but not browned, about 6 minutes. Add rice and thyme leaves, and continue stirring until the edges of the rice are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring constantly, until nearly all the wine is absorbed, about 30 seconds.
  • Raise the heat to medium high, add salt and pepper and about 1/2 cup of the simmering stock, and cook, stirring constantly, until nearly all the stock is absorbed. Continue adding stock, about 1/2 cup at a time. Cook, stirring constantly, allowing each addition to be nearly absorbed before adding the next, until rice is creamy but still a little firm in the center, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, and stir in lentils, Swiss chard, and Parmesan. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary. Divide the risotto among six plates, and garnish with the shredded radicchio. Serve immediately.

  • Bring the vegetable broth to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Keep it simmering while you prepare the rest of the recipe, and make sure it doesn't come to a boil.
  • In a Dutch oven or large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced shallot and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until tender. Stir in the garlic, arborio rice, and lentils. Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 to 4 minutes until the edges of the rice start to become translucent. Pour in the dry white wine and stir constantly until it's absorbed.
  • Using a large soup ladle or a 1/2 cup measuring cup, pour some of the hot broth into the pot. Stir constantly until it's absorbed. Repeat this step until all of the broth has been used, the rice is tender, and the lentils are cooked but not mushy (about 40 to 45 minutes). You will notice that the rice will be tender before the lentils are. This is how it should be, and it's OK to keep adding broth so that the lentils cook. You may need slightly more or less broth than listed. Sometimes I heat up two quarts of broth (8 cups) just to have extra if I need it to keep cooking the lentils.
  • Once the risotto is ready, stir in the chopped collard greens and parmesan cheese. Cook for a few minutes until the greens are wilted and fully incorporated into the risotto. Remove from heat, serve, and enjoy!

  • In a medium saucepan of boiling water, cook the lentils until tender, about 15 minutes; drain and set aside. In another saucepan, steam the squash in a steamer basket until just tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • In a medium saucepan, bring the stock to a boil; keep it at a bare simmer over very low heat. In a large saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in the olive oil over moderate heat. Add the bacon, garlic and shallot and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat thoroughly. Add the wine and simmer until almost evaporated, about 4 minutes. Stir in one-third of the simmering stock and cook, stirring constantly, until the stock is almost entirely absorbed; repeat with the remaining stock. The risotto should be creamy with just-tender rice grains after 20 minutes.
  • Add the lentils, squash, Swiss chard and apple to the risotto. Stir in the Parmesan, sage and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
