LENTILS AND SPINACH
This is my own adaptation of an Indian recipe. It doesn't look like much, but it is surprisingly yummy. Serve this for dinner over hot rice or a diced baked potato. Pair with carrots, cauliflower, or a fresh sliced tomato for a full meal.

LENTIL AND SPINACH SOUP
In Lebanon, this soup is called Adas B'Sbaanegh and is prepared as a starter course or mezze. Though I have not yet tried it, the recipe looks quite straight forward with pleasing results. Traditionally, this is prepared with water but you should feel free to use broth. The amount of oil depends on your taste and dietary preferences. Originally found in a very old cookbook produced by Sahadi's a fantastic market in Brooklyn, NY.

Steps:
- Sort and rinse the lentils in a large bowl discarding any debris or damaged legumes.
- Place the lentils in a large pot with the water. Bring the water to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook for 25-30 minutes until lentils are tender but still retain their shape.
- Finely mince the garlic and create a paste by mashing it with the salt using a mortar or the back of a large knife.
- In a separate pan, brown the chopped onions in the oil. Add the spinach leaves and stalks, as well as the garlic paste. Simmer over low heat until the spinach is wilted.
- Bring the lentils back to a boil and add the onion spinach mixture and the celery. Turn the heat down again and simmer for 5 minutes.
- If you would like a thin soup, add the lemon juice alone. For a thicker soup, whisk the cornstarch into the lemon juice before adding. If adding cornstarch be certain to simmer a few additional minutes until soup thickens.

LENTIL AND SPINACH SALAD WITH ONION, CUMIN AND GARLIC
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.

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.

Steps:
- Pour enough cold water over the lentils, onions, carrots, celery, and bay leaves in a 3-quart saucepan to cover by three fingers. Season with salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Adjust the heat so the water is at a gentle boil and cook until the lentils are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain the lentils, discard the bay leaves, and transfer to a large skillet.
- Pour in the chicken stock and olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and cook until the liquid is reduced enough to coat the lentils, about 3 minutes. Scatter the spinach over the lentils and toss just until the spinach is wilted, about 1 minute. Taste and add salt and pepper if necessary. Serve immediately.
