Recipe #72 Green Lentil Gratin

Shopping list (6 portions)


  • 150 gr dry green lentils
  • 75 gr dry red lentils
  • 1 stock cube vegetable
  • 800 ml water
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 chopped carrots
  • Pinch of salt, pepper, parsley, cayenne pepper
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 250gr vegan cheese (violate pizza cheese)


Method

In a food processor chop the onions, carrots and garlic. Place them into a saucepan, on high flame with the olive oil, seasoning and let everything cook for some minutes. When the onions get soft place the lentils into the pan and cover with water and the vegetable cube. Turn the heat down to medium and cover. Let it cook for around 15-20min and stir from time to time so the lentils don't stick to the bottom.
When the lentils are cooked; grated half of the cheese into the bottom of an oven proof dish, cover with the lentils and grate the remaining cheese on the top. Place this into the oven for 15min on 200oC.
