Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 30m

Yield Makes 8 cakes

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup red lentils
3 scallions, pale-green and white parts chopped; greens thinly sliced on bias
1 tablespoon harissa
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Coarse salt
1 large egg plus 1 large egg white
2 1/2 ounces goat's-milk or sheep's-milk feta cheese, crumbled (1/2 cup)
1/2 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon finely grated garlic (from 1 small clove)
1/2 English cucumber, cut into half-moons (1 cup)
1/2 ounce upland cress or watercress (1 cup)
1/4 ounce fresh mint leaves (1/2 cup)
2 teaspoons safflower oil

Steps:

  • Cover lentils with 2 inches cold water. Soak 4 hours at room temperature or up to 1 day in refrigerator. Drain well. Pulse pale-green and white parts of scallions in a food processor until minced. Add harissa, turmeric, baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and egg and egg white; pulse to combine. Add lentils; puree until almost smooth. Transfer mixture to a bowl, and stir in a little more than half the feta.
  • Whisk remaining feta, the yogurt, lemon juice, and garlic in a small bowl. Combine cucumber, cress, and mint in another bowl.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place a scant tablespoon of scallion greens in pan, and spoon about an eighth of the batter on top, spreading to make a 3-inch cake. Repeat, making 4 cakes at a time. Cook until golden brown, flipping once, about 6 minutes. Add remaining teaspoon oil, and repeat.
  • Divide sauce among 4 plates; top with salad. Place cakes next to greens, and serve.

DELICIOUS GREEK LENTIL SALAD RECIPE WITH FETA CHEESE (FAKES SALATA)



Delicious Greek Lentil Salad Recipe with Feta cheese (Fakes Salata) image

An absolutely delicious and super healthy Greek lentil salad recipe with feta cheese and fresh vegetables. Whether eaten as a snack, side or light vegetarian meal, this super easy feta lentil salad recipe never fails to impress!

Provided by Eli K. Giannopoulos

Categories     Salad

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

400g brown lentils, picked and rinsed (14 oz.)
1 bay leaf
2-3 peppers (red, orange, yellow), roasted and sliced
250g feta cheese, crumbled (9 oz.)
10 cherry tomatoes, cut in half or 1 juicy tomato, cut in cubes
1 red onion, chopped
a handful fresh parsley (or dill), chopped
a handful fresh mint, chopped
10 kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
salt and freshly ground pepper
6 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
6 tbsps red wine vinegar
1 clove of garlic, minced
a pinch of sweet paprika

Steps:

  • To prepare this Greek style lentil salad recipe with feta cheese, start by cooking the lentils. Place the lentils in a colander and rinse them thoroughly under running water. Drain and place them in a large pot. Cover the lentils with a 5-6cm of cold water, season with salt, add the bay leaf and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook for about 20-25 minutes. For this Greek lentil feta salad recipe the lentils should be cooked, but still retain a slight tooth. Keep in mind that different varieties of lentils cook at different times, so have a taste after 15 minutes and be careful not to overcook them!
  • In the meantime prepare the vegetables. For this Greek feta lentil salad recipe, you could use the peppers raw, cut into little cubes or roasted. Roasting the peppers, until slightly soft, will give extra flavour. To roast the peppers, cut them in half crosswise and place on a baking tray, lined with parchment pepper. Drizzle with a little olive oil and season with salt. Bake in preheated oven at 200-220C for about 20 minutes, or until softened.
  • To prepare the dressing for this Greek lentil salad recipe, add all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
  • When the lentils are cooked, drain them in a colander and place under cold running water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled slightly place lentils in a large serving bowl and toss with dressing. Add the chopped onion, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, olives and roasted peppers (sliced) and blend. Wait to add the fresh herbs just before serving. Enjoy!

LENTIL CAKES (PATTIES)



Lentil Cakes (Patties) image

These wonderful patties have undergone several transformations since I first tried them. I have used different soup mixes to season them, and added chopped nuts for texture. They are tasty with a tomato sauce topping or baked in a mushroom sauce for a fancy dinner. I like them best fixed up like a hamburger with lettuce, tomato, cheese, mayo, ketchup and alfalfa sprouts on a bun or good home-made bread!

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup dry brown lentils
2 ½ cups water
¼ cup milk
1 cup wheat and barley nugget cereal (e.g. Grape-Nuts™)
1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
½ teaspoon poultry seasoning
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup chopped walnuts
1 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Place lentils and water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the cooked lentils, milk, wheat and barley cereal, eggs and walnuts. Season with onion soup mix and poultry seasoning. Mix well using your hands, as the mixture will be very thick. Let stand for 30 minutes, or refrigerate overnight.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Use an ice cream scoop to portion out balls of the lentil mixture. Drop the scoops into bread crumbs, and coat while flattening into patties. Fry burgers in the hot skillet until nicely browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the patties.

  • Add the lentils, water, bay leaf, and pepper. Bring to a rapid simmer over high heat then reduce to low and let gently simmer, uncovered, for 20-30 minutes, or until the lentils are soft but not yet falling apart. Add more water as needed to make sure the lentils are always submerged.
