FRENCH PUY LENTIL SALAD
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.

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.

PUY LENTIL SALAD
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.
