"The cooking of onions and lentils with arugula and yogurt is a comforting combination of nutritious legumes with the sweetness of sautéed leeks. Finished with the spicy freshness of raw arugula and the creaminess of plain yogurt, it creates a harmonious and substantial vegetarian dish."
- The initial sauté of garlic and onion rings in olive oil releases natural sugars that enrich the vegetable broth. - Cooking the lentils for 20 minutes preserves the shape of the whole grains without breaking them down into an overly thick puree. - The addition of arugula and yogurt off the high heat preserves the green vegetable freshness and prevents the dairy ferments from curdling.
Wash the onions and cut into thin slices.
In a pot, heat the olive oil and sauté the garlic until golden.
Add the onions and sauté for 5 minutes.
Add the lentils and vegetable broth. Cook for 20 minutes.
