Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cooked lentils, rinsed
- 1/3 cup green olives, pitted
- 2 tablespoons canned tuna
- 4 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Fine sea salt, to taste
- Ground black pepper, to taste
Method
Combine lentils, garlic and 1 1/2 cups water in a medium pot over medium heat.
Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, until lentils are tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain, reserving cooking liquid separately.
In the bowl of a food processor, blend together lentils, garlic, olives and tuna until smooth, adding reserved cooking liquid 1 tablespoon at a time, if the mixture is too thick.
With an on-off motion blend capers, mustard, lemon zest, salt and pepper.
While the motor is running, slowly add olive oil.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
