Honey Baked Lentils

"This is a fantastic recipe even for non-lentil eaters. The honey gives it a sweet taste and it is perfect served with rice. It's great as a main dish but could be a side as well. This is the first of many wonderful lentil recipes i tried. I was scared of lentils but my daughter wouldn't eat meat so i had to try other things...needless to say lentils are a part of our regular diet and that is because of this great recipe."

Original Recipe Yield 8 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 pound dry lentils
  • 1 small bay leaf
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup honey

Directions

  1. Combine the lentils, bay leaf, 2 cups water, chicken broth, and salt together in a dutch oven or oven-proof saucepan; bring the mixture to a boil. Place a cover on the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and allow the lentils to simmer for 30 minutes. Remove and discard the bay leaf.
  2. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  3. Stir the dry mustard, ginger, soy sauce, onion, and 1 cup water together in a bowl; stir the mixture into the lentils. Drizzle the honey over the mixture. Return the cover to the pan.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until the lentils are tender, about 1 hour.
