Some nights I have a really tough time thinking of a dish to make and I turn to the weird and wonderful. Sometimes my family love it…sometimes not so much! This little gem is definitely a keeper and was absolutely mouth wateringly delicious!
This recipe comes together really quickly. The most time consuming bit is the lentils but they can be made ahead and warmed up when needed. I would suggest using them within an hour though otherwise they do become a little starchy and grainy. I used a type of lentil called Pardina that is a small brown variety from Spain. If you can’t get this type of lentil you will be wanting to get a small lentil variety that has a long cooking time otherwise your braised lentils will turn to mush.
Yoghurt and lentils…that sounds disgusting I hear you say? My dear friends please try this recipe and you will be converted. The rich savouriness of the lentils and the creaminess of the egg yolk and yoghurt really complement each other so well. Have this for breakfast, lunch or supper…you won’t be disappointed!
