Jamie Oliver Lovely Lentils 250g
Lovely Lentils
These hearty lentils really deliver on the flavour front. We've slow-cooked and combined with carrots, spinach, celery and red onion until it's all nice and sweet, then tossed it in a red wine vinegar and olive oil dressing. It's so tasty you could just eat it on its own.
Hints & tips
For a really special side, fry a little chopped streaky bacon until nice and crispy, then stir it through the warmed lentils with some fresh thyme and chopped chilli. Top with olive oil and a few drops of red wine vinegar, then serve up with roast chicken, grilled sausages and poached fish.
What's so good about lentils...?
Lentils are a good source of fibre and protein and have been part of our diet for thousands of years - experts say maybe even 13,000 years. They come in all kinds of colours, from red to green to black, and are grown and eaten all around the world. They can take a while to cook, but we've taken care of that!
