Ingredients

For 4 people

  • 200 g mountain lentils
  • 2 green peppers
  • 1 bunch of parsley
  • 1 bunch of rocket
  • 1 avocado (optional)
  • 50 g pumpkin seeds
  • 50 ml pumpkin seed oil
  • 50 ml lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp Tamari (alternatively other soy sauce)
  • 2 tbsp pear syrup
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 pinch of cayenne pepper

preparation

Boil the mountain lentils in plenty of water and cook them al dente according to the instructions on the packet. Drain them in a sieve, rinse them in cold water (otherwise they will continue to cook and become softer) and place them in a large bowl.

Wash the peppers, remove the seeds and then dice very, very, very finely. Wash the parsley and rocket, shake dry and chop finely - preferably with the stems. Halve the avocado, remove the stone, dice the flesh in the skin and remove it with a spoon (peel thin-skinned avocados first, then dice).

Mix all the prepared ingredients with the pumpkin seeds and lentils. Shake the pumpkin seed oil, lemon juice, tamari, syrup, salt and cayenne pepper in a large screw-top jar to create a creamy salad dressing. Mix the dressing with the salad and season to taste. Let the salad sit for about 30 minutes before serving.
