ingredients
- 4 cups dried red lentils
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or water
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste
Method
Step 1
Rinse the lentils under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, cover the lentils with water to a depth of about 2 inches. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook covered for about 15 minutes, or until the lentils are just tender. Drain any excess water using a sieve.
Step 2
Place the lentils, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, ginger powder, cumin, turmeric, onion powder, and cayenne into a food processor. Pulse until smooth, adding water as needed until the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
