How to Make Crispy Roasted Lentils

lentils

vegetable bouillon cube (use only if cooking lentils from scratch, not needed for canned lentils)

avocado oil

garlic powder

onion powder

Kosher salt

If using dry lentils,

place in a saucepan with a bouillon cube and 2 1/2 cups water. Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for about 15-17 minutes or until the lentils are tender and cooked through. Drain off any remaining liquid and allow to cool. If using canned lentils, place the drained lentils on a clean kitchen towel and carefully pat dry to remove excess moisture.

Preheat the oven to 425F. Transfer the lentils to a parchment lined baking tray then add the oil, garlic powder, onion powder and a generous pinch of salt. Toss the lentils to coat evenly in the mixture then spread the lentils out in a single layer.

Place the lentils in the oven on the middle rack and bake for 15 minutes. Give the lentils a toss, spreading them back in an even layer then roast for an additional 5-8 minutes until crispy.

After removing from the oven, allow the lentils to completely cool then use as desired.
