Lentils red
£0.35 per 100g
Country of Origin: Canada Cooking instructions: Rinse your lentils with fresh water before boiling to remove any dust or debris. Cook on a stovetop, using 3 cups of liquid (water, stock, etc) to 1 cup of dry lentils. Be sure to use a large enough saucepan as the lentils will double or triple in size. Bring to a boil, cover tightly, reduce heat and simmer until they are tender. For split red lentils, cook time is typically only about 5-7 minutes. Salt after cooking.
