Nutritional information: 710 kcal, 46g protein, or 237 kcal, 15 g protein for 3 servings

Directions

Add lentils, onion, salt and water to saucepan, then bring to the boil.

Once the water boils, cover and reduce the heat. Leave to simmer for 1 hour, stirring regularly.

When the lentils have broken down and become thick, taste and season for salt. Add chopped coriander, and serve.

Notes

My version.

Lentils: red lentils, mung lentils, even split peas can work. Green lentils do not work as they do not break down.
