Lentil: lunch recipe

Why is it necessary to love lentils? Because it is one of the few foods to which the digestive system of people is adapted at a genetic level. A typical salad with lentils or soup from it contains all the substances our body needs. The lentil made up of a third of the protein is in no way inferior to meat in composition, but is digested much more easily and completely.

Lentils are rich in useful substances, but one of themquality makes the dishes from it unique. These beans are not able to accumulate any toxic substances. Grown even on the field with increased radiation or fertilized by an incalculable amount of pesticides, the plant remains environmentally friendly, and, therefore, a safe and useful product.

That is why recipes with lentils are gaining popularity in our country among knowledgeable people. In shops today you can find many varieties of this useful plant.

Which dishes are suitable for lentils? The recipe for cooking any dish from it can be found on the Internet and printed publications. These recipes are diverse and numerous. Let's try to cook a whole dinner from this useful product.

The first is soup-puree, based on lentils. Soup recipes are different, but I like it the most.

Washed beans should be boiled in a saucepan,constantly pouring cold water. Separately fry the onions with garlic. Ready lentils to take out of broth, blend, add spices, fried onion together with butter. Then pour a small amount of cream and put again on the fire. Once the soup boils, sprinkle with spicy greens and remove from heat. I like to season this soup with mint, thyme, sage.

At the heart of our second dish will also be lentils. Recipes for such dishes are varied: with meat or vegetables. We'll choose the latter, because the composition of the meat with lentils is similar, and eating meat with meat does not make sense.

Therefore, we prepare rice pilaf with lentils. First we boil the beans. When they are half cooked, spread out to them rice, grated, pre-fried carrots with onion, spices. Densely covered. Gradually reducing the heat, cook until the water evaporates. We wrap it, let it stand for half an hour. Such pilaf can be served as a separate dish or used as a garnish.

For salad, red canned lentils are useful. Recipes of the first and second dishes did not assume the use of meat, that is, they were practically dietary. We will continue this tradition.

Fry in a pan a mushroom with onion, merge excessbutter. Green onions, mint, thyme, coriander, other herbs finely chopped, mixed with mushrooms. The last thing to put in the salad canned lentils. Add spices, lemon juice or a drop of vinegar, spices.

For dessert we will try to cook lazy piesfrom carrots, onions and lentils. Separately we boil carrots, lentils. From the canned corn drain the liquid. We put carrots, onions, corn, lentils (they should be evenly) in the blender and turn everything into puree. Add flour, spices, pepper, salt to taste. From the ready-made dough it's good to make lazy patties, and you can cut figurines with the help of molds. Bake in the oven on oiled paper for about half an hour.

Instead of compote we store our lentil dinner with an energy drink made from the same lentils.

For this, beans (based on a spoon on a glassliquid) fry in a dry frying pan until dark brown. We pass through a coffee grinder, brew, like ordinary coffee. In a lightly cooled drink, add a spoonful of honey, mint broth, a little grated ginger. Cover, let cool, filter. This drink is very good to drink very cold: its spicy taste refreshes, and honey and lentils give energy to the body.

Of course, a whole lunch of lentils is too monotonous. But the dishes can be entered in the menu at different times.

The constant use of dishes made of lentilsnormalizes the work of the body, allows you to lose weight, removes toxins and gives the body an incredible influx of energy. Try it and you will forget about your ailments.
