LENTIL SALAD WITH FRESH FAVAS



Lentil Salad With Fresh Favas image

According to Jo Robinson, a food and nutrition writer whose informative new book, Eating on the Wild Side," cites a federal survey of phytonutrient content of common fruits and vegetables, lentils have the most antioxidant activity of all legumes, with black beans a close second.

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup lentils, rinsed and picked over
3 large garlic cloves, 2 of them crushed and left in the skin, 1 of them minced
1/2 onion, intact
1 bay leaf
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or cider vinegar
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, lightly toasted and ground
1/2 teaspoon mild chili powder or Aleppo pepper
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/2 pound fresh fava beans, shelled and skinned
2 medium tomatoes, in season only, diced
1/4 cup diced celery
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1 bunch scallions, chopped

Steps:

  • Place the lentils, whole crushed garlic cloves, onion half and bay leaf in a large, heavy saucepan and cover by 1 inch with water. Bring to a boil, add salt to taste, reduce the heat, cover and simmer until lentils are tender but still firm, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat, remove the lid and allow the lentils to cool for 30 minutes. Remove and discard the onion. Remove the garlic cloves and squeeze the cooked garlic out of the skins and back into the lentils. Drain off any liquid remaining in the pot.
  • Transfer the lentils to a large bowl. Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, salt to taste, cumin, chili powder or Aleppo pepper, freshly ground pepper and olive oil. Toss with the lentils. Add the remaining ingredients and toss together. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

THE BEST LENTIL SALAD, EVER



The Best Lentil Salad, Ever image

This recipe was created by Sarah Britton and posted on the My New Roots blog. She calls it the best lentil salad ever, and I have to agree. I serve this over a small bed of baby arugula, and top the salad with some crumbled goat cheese for a healthy, tasty meatless meal. Other optional add-ins mentioned by Sarah are walnuts, fresh herbs & sprouts.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

8 ounces dry lentils
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
1/2 tablespoon stone ground mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 red onion, finely diced
1/2 cup raisins or 1/2 cup dried currant
3 tablespoons capers, drained

Steps:

  • Rinse lentils well, drain. Place in a pot and cover with a 3-4 inches of water, bring to a boil, reduce to simmer. Check lentils for doneness after 10 minutes, but they should take about 15 minutes in total. You will know they are cooked if they still retain a slight tooth - al dente! (Overcooking the lentils is the death of this dish) Drain & rinse the lentils under cold water and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, make the dressing by whisking together the olive, vinegar, maple syrup, mustard and all the spices (salt through cinnamon).
  • In a large serving bowl, gently combine the lentils and dressing. Add the onions, cranberries and capers and stir to combine well. If using other add-ins such as herbs, greens, or cheese, wait to add until just before serving. Otherwise, this salad can hang out in the fridge for as long as a couple days!
