1001 Nights meets German home cooking with apple cider vinegar!
Lenses – we love! They are healthy, easy to store and children also like lentils, especially when they taste as delicious as in my oriental lentil salad with apple cider vinegar . It is well known that lentils and apple cider vinegar not only taste good together, but also make the legume more digestible... one more reason for a new recipe for lentil salad, right? Here comes my favorite with an oriental touch!
Ingredients for 4 portions of lentil salad
- 250 g lentils, brown
- 4 large onions
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 1 large piece of ginger
- 1/2 bunch of dill
- 1 teaspoon cumin, ground
- 6 tbsp DR. HÖHL'S BioEss naturally cloudy
- 2 tbsp sweetener of your choice, e.g. B. Agave syrup ... OR replace apple cider vinegar + sweetener with our flavor booster RECIPE 1779
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- Pepper and salt to taste
Preparation of the lentil salad
This is how this oriental dream becomes reality:
- Soak lentils overnight. Then cook with the cinnamon stick, half of the chopped ginger and the garlic clove until al dente.
- Cut the onion into rings and fry in butter (or vegan alternative).
- Chop the dill and mix with the apple cider vinegar-honey RECIPE 1779, olive oil, cumin, pepper and salt to form a marinade.
- Pour over the still hot, drained lentils and mix well.
- Cut the remaining fresh ginger into fine strips and garnish with the onion rings. (Omit the raw ginger for children.)
Lentil salad goes well with...
Delicious as a salad with any BBQ, as a side dish or part of a balanced bowl, or as a vegetarian main course with iron. Children who don't like meat can get iron and protein this way.
