Lentils With Roasted Beets
Ready In: 1 hr 10 mins
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
Directions
- Wrap each beet separately in aluminum foil. Place in a baking dish and roast in a preheated 375°F oven until tender, about 1 hour.
- Rinse lentils under cold running water to remove dust. Combine in a large pot with 3 cups water, onion, garlic and bay leaf. Place over medium het until boiling; reduce to low, cover and simmer until almost all the water is absorbed and the lentils are tender, about 1 hour. Add more water if they start to look dry before getting tender. Remove and discard onion, garlic and bay leaf.
- Unwrap beets and remove skins. Cut in large dice (about 1/2") and add to lentils. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with good olive oil and garnish with scallions or parsley.
