Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup dried lentils
- 2 cups spinach, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup flour (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
- Rinse and cook the lentils. Rinse the lentils under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine them with 1 cup of water. Cook over medium heat until tender, approximately 15 minutes.
- Prepare the spinach mixture. In a separate bowl, mix the cooked lentils with the chopped spinach, salt, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and olive oil. Stir until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture into a blender. Blend until it reaches a smooth consistency.
- Add the baking powder. With your blender still running, add the baking powder to the mixture and blend briefly to incorporate.
- Heat the skillet. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour a ladle of the lentil-spinach mixture into the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
- Repeat the cooking process with the remaining mixture, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid burning. Serve warm, and enjoy each bite!
Notes
Soak your lentils for a few hours to reduce cooking time. Customize the spices to your taste. For thicker flatbreads, use a generous ladleful.
