Lentil Salad with Roasted Garlic image

I prefer using French lentils here, but any kind will do. You can use leftover cooked lentils, but if they are refrigerator-cold, heat them and let them absorb the flavors. I like to eat this salad slightly warm, or at least at room temperature.

Number Of Ingredients 11

Cooked lentils (see page 203)
Salt
6 roasted garlic cloves (page 143)
3 or 4 sprigs fresh parsley, chopped
2 scallions, chopped
3 or 4 small chunks goat cheese
1 roasted garlic clove
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
A few black olives

Steps:

  • Put the cooked lentils into a bowl, and season with salt. Squeeze the roasted garlic into the lentils, mix well, and fold in the parsley, scallions, and goat cheese. For the dressing, mash the garlic, and mix it with the salt, vinegar, and olive oil. Pour the dressing over the warm salad, using as much as you like. Garnish with a few black olives.
