Lentils, Black Beluga (Organic) - 500g

A vegetarian favourite, this nourishing wholefood provides high levels of protein and dietary fibre, while being naturally low in fat and sugar.

Lentils readily absorb the flavours of the ingredients they are cooked with, making them super versatile. Black beluga lentils hold their shape well during cooking, so they’re great for salads and pilafs.

Enjoy Me...

  • Rinse. Add 1 cup of lentils to 4 cups boiling water. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until tender.

How Interesting...

  • Lentils are legumes along with other types of beans. They grow in pods that contain either one or two lentil seeds that are round, oval or heart-shaped disks and are often smaller than the tip of a pencil eraser. They are available, whole or split into halves with the brown and green varieties being the best at retaining their shape after cooking.
  • These tiny nutritional giants are rich in fibre and a good source of protein and iron. In addition to having a host of other nutrients, lentils are low in fat and low in sugar. They are a staple in vegetarian diets.
