Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 pound (2 1/4 cups) French lentils, also called Puy lentils
  • 1 quart vegetable broth
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon dried mediterranean herbs, such as thyme, tarragon, or sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instruction

  • In a large saucepan, bring all ingredients to a simmer. Simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes until tender (taste to assess doneness).
  • Drain the excess liquid. Taste and if serving as is, season with additional salt and pepper (and maybe a drizzle of olive oil). To make a tasty side, add chopped fresh herbs or a little minced garlic. Or, use in salad recipes like our French lentil salad.
