Como fazer Spiced Lentils And Cantaloupe
- Rinse 1 cup of green or brown lentils thoroughly under cold water.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed lentils with 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until lentils are tender but not mushy.
- Drain the cooked lentils in a fine-mesh sieve and set aside to cool completely.
- While the lentils cool, prepare the cantaloupe: Cut 1 small cantaloupe (about 2 cups cubed) into bite-sized pieces.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cooled lentils, cubed cantaloupe, 1/4 cup chopped red onion, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and the juice of 1/2 lime.
- Gently toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend before serving. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
