Step 1

To start making your sweet Korean lentils, heat oil on a large non-stick pan on medium-high heat and add diced onions and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, mix together the Korean sauce ingredients in a bowl: soy sauce, unsweetened apple sauce, brown sugar, minced ginger (or ginger powder) and roasted sesame oil.

Step 3

Once onions and garlic have cooked, add in dry lentils (I use red split lentils), water and the Korean sauce. Mix well and bring to a boil.

Step 4

Turn the heat down to a medium-low and let it simmer, stirring every few minutes, until the lentils have cooked and absorbed all the sauce and water (around 10-12 minutes). Add small splashes of water if it gets too dry.

Step 5

Optionally, you can top your sweet Korean lentils with sesame seeds and green onions and serve on top of rice.

Step 6

Storage tip: Keep in a tightly sealed container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days to enjoy later.
