Ingredients

1 cup lentils

1 tbsp olive oil (original recipe used diced bacon and cooked it first to get fat)

1 tsp minced garlic

1 tbsp minged ginger

1/4 cup finely diced onion

1/2 cup finely diced carrot (I just slice baby carrots)

1 cup apple cider (I use alcoholic cider)

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

pinch of sugar

1/4 tsp ground cumin

2 tbsp sherry vinegar or wine vinegar

1/2 cup chopped mint

Directions

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil, salt and add lentils.

Boil until just tender (~20 mins).

Drain, rinse under cold water, drain.

Heat the oil over medium.

Add garlic, ginger, onion, carrots, and cook for 3 mins.

Add lentils, cider, and salt, and cook over low heat until liquid is absorbed (~10 mins), stirring occasionally.

Stir in the rest of the ingredients, and then serve.

Wow, this looks great! I think I'll try it this weekend. DO you have a suggestion as to which type of lentils? (green, red, brown, etc.)

Also, when you say alcoholic cider, do you mean like a cider-type beer?
