LENTIL AND SPINACH SALAD WITH ONION, CUMIN AND GARLIC



Lentil and Spinach Salad With Onion, Cumin and Garlic image

A wonderfully earthy salad that is great for a picnic or with BBQd meats, that improves with standing and that is better served at room temperature rather than chilled. I am posting this Middle Eastern-style salad for the 2005 Zaar World Tour. I found it in English chef Brian Glover's fabulous book 'The Onion Cookbook': a real culinary haven for lovers of onions, garlic, leeks, spring onions, shallots and chives.

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup puy lentils
1 fresh bay leaf
1 stick celery
1 sprig fresh thyme
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onions or 3 -4 shallots, finely chopped
2 teaspoons cumin seeds, toasted, crushed
400 g Baby Spinach
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped, plus a few extra sprigs
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
5 teaspoons red wine vinegar
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon lemon rind, finely grated

Steps:

  • Rinse the lentils and place them in a large saucepan and add plenty of water to cover; tie the bay leaf, celery and thyme into a bundle and add to the pan, then bring to the boil; reduce the heat so that the water boils steadily; cook the lentils for 30-40 minutes or until they are just tender. DO NOT ADD SALT at this stage, as it toughens the lentils.
  • Meanwhile, to make the dessing, mix the oil, mustard, 3 teaspoons vinegar, garlic and lemon rind, and season to taste with pepper and salt.
  • Thoroughly drain the lentils and transfer them to a bowl, add most of the dressing and toss until all the ingredients are well-combined, then set aside, stirring occasionally.
  • Heat the oil in a deep pan and cook the onions or shallots over a low heat for 4-5 minutes, until they are beginning to soften. Add the cumin and cook for 1 minute.
  • Add the spinach and season to taste, cover and cook for 2 minutes; stir, then cook again briefly until wilted.
  • Stir the spinach into the lentils and leave the salad to cool. Bring back to room temperature if necessary. Stir in the remaining dressing and chopped parsley, adjust the seasoning, adding extra wine vinegar if necessary.
  • Transfer the salad to a serving platter and scatter over some parsley sprigs.
  • Chef's Note: Puy lentils are named after a town in France. They are considered to have the best and most distinctive flavour and they keep both their shape and colour well when cooked, making them ideal for salads.

Provided by Geraldene Holt

Categories     Lunch, Vegetable

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

200g baby new potato (about 12)
120g pack smoked trout , flaked
50g mixed herb salad
a few shreds of lemon zest
5 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp tarragon vinegar or lemon juice
a sliver of garlic , crushed
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill
3 tbsp crème fraîche or double cream
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill

Steps:

  • Scrub, scrape and halve the potatoes, then cook in salted boiling water for 8-10 minutes until tender. Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette by mixing the olive oil with the vinegar, crushed garlic and salt and pepper to taste, then mix in the dill. (To speed things up all the ingredients can be shaken vigorously in a clean screw top jar.) Drain the potatoes and return them to their pan. Spoon over 2 tbsp of vinaigrette, cover the pan with its lid or a plate, and keep warm.
  • Gently warm the crème fraîche, lemon juice and dill for the cream dressing in another pan (a shallow one is best), stirring all the time until blended. Add the trout flakes and toss gently over a low heat until the fish is warm.
  • Scatter the salad and herb leaves over two plates, trickle over some of the remaining vinaigrette and spoon the dressed potatoes round the edge. Gently stir the lemon zest into the fish, then spoon the fish and dressing into the centre of the salad. Serve straight away. Any leftover vinaigrette can be served separately or saved in a screw top jar in the fridge for up to a week.
