PUY LENTIL SALAD



Puy Lentil Salad image

I love Puy lentils - they're nutty tasting with a lovely texture. If you can't get Puy lentils, brown or green work equally well. This salad is a great, healthy accompaniment to a meal, or as a dish in it's own right. The recipe is from Stephanie Alexander's original edition of the cook's companion. I've adapted it slightly.

FRENCH PUY LENTIL SALAD



French Puy Lentil Salad image

Have you tried Puy lentils yet? These are small, green lentils from France and have a slight peppery flavor and a firm, yet tender, texture. They hold their shape well and are ideal for a salad, but they do take longer to cook than most other lentils. They do not, however, need pre-soaking. In this salad the mint and lemon juice add a lively, fresh taste, while the balsamic vinegar adds a mellow sweetness.

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 1/2 cups water (28 fl oz)
1/2 onion
2 cloves
1 1/2 cups puy lentils (10 oz)
1 slice lemon, zest of
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1 fresh bay leaf
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
3 green onions, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Peel the half-onion and stud with the cloves.
  • Combine onion, lentils, lemon zest, garlic, bay leaf, 1 teaspoon cumin and water in a medium-sized pan.
  • Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook for 25-30 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed, taking care not to burn- you can add a little more water if needed, but try not to cook much more than 30 minutes as they should be'al dente'.
  • Reserve the garlic and chop finely, but discard the onion, lemon zest and bay leaf.
  • In a suitable container, whisk together the vinegar, oil, lemon juice, remaining cumin and reserved garlic, to make the dressing.
  • Stir the dressing through the lentils with the mint and chopped green onions, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Allow to stand for 30 minutes so that the flavors absorb.
  • Serve at room temperature.

  • 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 15 minutes, but they should take about 20 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. Be careful!
  • While the lentils are simmering, make the dressing by placing all ingredients in a jar with a tight fitting lid and shake vigorously to combine.
  • Finely dice red onion - the salad is best if all the ingredients are about the same size. If using raisins, chop them roughly to make them a bit smaller, and do the same with the capers if they are large.
  • When the lentils are cooked, remove from heat, drain and place under cold running water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled slightly but still a little warm, place lentils in a large serving bowl and toss with dressing. Add other onion, capers, and currants. If using other add-ins such as herbs, greens, or cheese, wait until just before serving. Otherwise, this salad can hang out in the fridge for a couple days.
