Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups French lentils; 1 bay leaf; 1/2 cup diced red onion; 1 teaspoon cider vinegar; 1/2 cup diced carrot; 1/2 cup plain yogurt; 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice; 1 tablespoon cider vinegar; 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin; 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric; 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander; 1 teaspoon salt; 1/8 teaspoon cayenne (to taste); 1/8 teaspoon black pepper; 1/2 red bell pepper, diced; 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

Servings: persons

1 1/2 cups French lentils
1 bay leaf
1/2 cup diced red onion
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1/2 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup plain yogurt
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne (to taste)
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

1
Rinse the lentils and place them in a medium saucepan; cover with water and add the bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer (the original recipe said to boil for 15-20 minutes -- I find it takes longer to cook the lentils).
2
Meanwhile, bring a small pot of water to a boil and drop the onion in for 15 seconds. Scoop out with a strainer and splash with vinegar.
3
Drop in the carrot for 1 minute to blanch.
4
In a small bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, 1 tb vinegar, and spices.
5
Drain the lentils when tender; remove the bay leaf and toss all ingredients together. Toss in cilantro before serving.
