Red lentils are a versatile food that provides a good source of protein, fiber, B-complex vitamins, iron and zinc. A member of the legume family, lentils are known for their lens-shaped seeds. Enjoy red lentils in soups, curries, or simply as a side dish on their own. They make any meal more nutritious, delicious and satisfying. Red lentils can be a staple of any pantry!
How to Cook Red Lentils
First, rinse the lentils by placing them in a sieve under running water. Transfer them to a pan with water or broth (for every 1 cup of lentils, use 1 1/2 cups of water or broth). Feel free to add flavorings, but don’t add salt yet. Bring the lentils to a boil, then turn down the heat and let them simmer. Stir them occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes for a firm texture that can be used in salads. Cook for 15 to 25 minutes for a puree. Add salt once the lentils are almost done cooking.
