Preparation and Usage
Simple to prepare
Squeeze the pouch to loosen the lentils.
For best results, heat through in a pan with a dash of water. Otherwise, tear a 2cm opening at the top and microwave for 45s at 900w, or simply enjoy them cold.
A recipe for change
For quick and simple plant-based meatballs, add a glug of water to a handful of oats in a processor then blitz. Add the lentils, sautéed garlic and shallots, flour, tomato purée, vegan parmesan then season to taste. Blitz again, press into small balls and shallow fry. Once browned, add to your favourite tomato sauce and enjoy!
