Mild, earthy, and quick to cook, organic red split lentils are a pantry essential for hearty, plant-based meals. Their soft texture makes them ideal for curries, soups, and comforting one-pot dishes. Naturally versatile and easy to prepare, they’re perfect for everyday cooking.
Uses:
Simmer into classic red lentil dhal or curry
Stir into soups, stews, and casseroles for added texture and substance
Blend into dips, spreads, or veggie patties
Use as a thickener in sauces or to bulk up mince-style recipes
Ideal in baby food, soft purees, or gentle-on-the-stomach meals
No soaking needed – just rinse and cook in water or stock for 15–20 minutes until soft.
