ROASTED EGGPLANT AND LENTILS
This is one of my favorite lentil dishes. It is hearty and flavorful and makes an excellent vegetarian main dish. You could make it a vegan dish by using soy cheese instead of mozzarella. If you're using fresh herbs instead of dried, use half as much.

LENTIL, ROASTED EGGPLANT & WALNUT SALAD
You can use Trader Joe's pre-cooked lentils for this hearty summer salad. If you can't find them, substitute about 3 cups cooked lentils. You can change this recipe for the seasons by omitting the eggplant and adding other fresh ingredients.

Steps:
- Remove the stalk from the eggplant, then slice it lengthways into 1cm thick slices. Place a few slices in a colander which you have set over a large bowl. Scatter salt liberally over the slices, then keep on layering the slices using up the salt as you go. Allow the eggplant to release its juice over the next hour or so.
- While the eggplant is doing it's thing, start on your sauce. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large heavy-based saucepan over medium heat and then sauté the onion and garlic for two minutes. when the onion starts to soften, add the celery and carrot, stir well to thoroughly coat in oil, and sauté for a further five minutes.
- Add the wine if you are using it (or half a cup of water if you are not) and allow the wine to bubble, stirring through the vegetables. When the wine has reduced by half, add the tomatoes, tomato paste, lentils, parsley and enough water to cover the contents by a further 2cm. Season with salt and pepper, add the sugar and stir well, then bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a slow simmer, cover the saucepan and simmer gently for an hour. From time to time, give the sauce a good stir - you may have to add another cup of water if it get's too dry. The lentils should become the consistency of cooked peas.
- Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large heavy-based frypan and add the rinsed and dried eggplant slices, a few at a time. Fry for about two minutes on each side until they start to turn golden brown and soften - drain on paper towel.
- To assemble: Preheat oven to 180°C Place a couple of large spoonfuls of lentils and sauce on the base of a large lasagne or gratin dish and smooth it out evenly. Place slices of eggplant over the top of the lentil mixture. Top with a layer of lasagne sheets. Continue layering and finish off with a layer of lasagne sheets.
- Top with warm béchamel sauce, then scatter grated parmesan over the top, or mozzarella, or tasty cheese if you prefer. Bake for 40 minutes until the lasagne sheets are cooked through and the top is golden and bubbling. If you need to, cover with a layer of foil to prevent the top colouring too much while the pasta cooks through.
- At this stage, you can allow it to cool to room temperature, then store it in the fridge, covered, for up three days. You can freeze it for up to one month. (Allow it to thaw before re-heating, covered in foil, for 45-50 minutes at 160°C).
- Remove from oven and let it sit on the bench top for ten minutes before slicing and serving.

- Strip leaves off stems from 1 large bunch Tuscan kale; discard stems or save for later! Stack leaves, then roll into fat cigars. Slice crosswise into ¼" strips to long, thin ribbons. Unfurl ribbons and run your knife through them just once or twice more to shorten any very long strips. Transfer to a large bowl, season with salt, and massage until kale is silkier, softer, and darker in color, 1–2 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil over high heat. While you're waiting, prep the spiced oil. Coarsely chop ½ cup raw almonds; set aside. Trim 3 scallions and separate white and green parts (save the green parts for later in the recipe); thinly slice white parts and transfer to a small skillet. Smash and peel 4 garlic cloves. Add those to same skillet, too. Using a vegetable peeler or paring knife, remove three 3" strips of lemon peel (avoiding white pith); reserve rest of the lemon for your salad dressing. Add peels to skillet. Pour ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil into skillet and stir so that all of the elements are coated in oil.
- Add 1½ cups black beluga or French green lentils to now-boiling water, reduce heat to medium, and simmer, uncovered, until lentils are tender but still al dente, 20–25 minutes (they'll turn mushy if overcooked). We love to cook lentils like pasta—that is, in an abundant amount of salted water—so that we can monitor their doneness as they cook and make sure they don't get too soft.
- While lentils cook, heat skillet with scallion mixture over medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic starts to brown and lemon peel starts to curl, about 3 minutes. Add almonds and cook, stirring frequently, until almonds are browned, about 3 more minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1 Tbsp. cumin seeds and ½ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes—the residual heat from the oil will bloom those spices and bring out their flavors.

- In a medium saucepan, combine the lentils, 3 1/2 cups of the water, and 1 teaspoon of the salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, partially covered, for 10 minutes. Stir in the bulgur and continue cooking, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until the lentils and bulgur are just done, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, partially covered, for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large nonstick frying pan, heat 3 tablespoons of the oil over moderate heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and the eggplant and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and the remaining 1 1/2 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant is very tender and no liquid remains in the pan, about 20 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir the lentil mixture, Tabasco, scallions, and half the parsley into the eggplant.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining parsley with the cucumber and tomato. Serve the lentils over the cucumber salad.
