Ingredients
Method
1.Cook the lentils by bringing them to the boil in salted water, then simmer until just cooked – about 30-40 minutes.
2.While the lentils are cooking, gently sauté the leeks in butter until cooked, then add the rice bran oil and spices. Cook for a further 1-2 minutes.
3.Transfer to an ovenproof dish. When the lentils are cooked and drained, add the cooked leeks to the dish. Mix to coat the lentils in the leeks and spices.
4.Add the capsicums and apples, along with a drizzle of water, then cover and bake for 20-30 minutes.
5.Serve the lentils in bowls with poppadoms.
Note
- The trick with creating awesome lentils is to cook them to just tender, so they remain whole, as opposed to overcooking which turns them to mush!
