Cloves infuse the braising liquid-and thus the lentils-with savory, spicy notes.
Ingredients:
3 whole cloves
1 small onion, peeled
2 cups water
1 1/2 cups petite green lentils
1/4 cup chopped green onions
2 tablespoons sherry
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 bay leaf
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can vegetable broth
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Directions:
1. Insert cloves into onion. Combine onion, water, and next 9 ingredients (water through broth) in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes or until lentils are tender. Remove onion and bay leaf with a slotted spoon; discard. Stir in salt; cook 2 minutes.
