In her caption, Francesca Tiegh called crispy lentils, “the perfect crunchy topping”. “I put them on everything but they're especially great on salads and with roasted vegetables,” she added. The ingredients required include canned or pre-cooked lentils, olive oil, salt and “other seasonings of your choice”. To prepare crispy lentils, Francesca recommends preheating the oven to 200C/392F. After that, the lentils must be drained, before adding them to a baking tray with baking paper. Seasoning with olive oil and salt comes next.
The final few steps involve mixing “everything to ensure they are coated well. Roast in the oven for around 25 to 30 minutes, tossing them from time to time to ensure they get crispy on all sides. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for about a week or in the fridge for a few weeks, always best to check and smell!” Reactions were quick to follow. “I've been wanting to try crispy lentils! Looks amazing,” commented an eager food enthusiast.
