Rosemary & Lemon Lentil Dip
Serves: 4 | Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cook Time: 30-40 minutes
INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup diced shallot
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 cup of green lentils
- 2 cups rosemary lemon broth
- 1 tsp of cumin
- 1 tsp of sea salt
- 1 tsp of black pepper
- 1 tsp of paprika
- 1 tsp fresh lemon zest and juice from 1 medium lemon
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- freshly diced curly parsley (for garnish)
METHOD
Saute the shallot and garlic until fragrant. Add the dry lentils, all dry spices and broth to the pot, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cover until lentils are soft (about 30-40 minutes). Remove from heat.
Add the fresh lemon zest, fresh squeezed lemon juice and olive oil to the pot, then pour all ingredients into a blender. Blend until smooth – and, if too thick, drizzle a bit of olive oil until desired consistency.
Garnish the spread with a bit of fresh grated lemon zest, a sprinkle of paprika, a drizzle of olive oil and some freshly diced curly parsley.
Serve with pita bread, fresh veggies, rice crackers. Also perfect for making turkey roll ups! Spread it on a slice of turkey, add a little arugula, and roll up!
