Cooking Time 20 minutes

Ingredients (serves 6)

1 tbs olive oil
1 garlic clove, chopped
4 (25cm diameter) Lebanese bread

Lentil & tomato salad

2 400g cans brown lentils
300g (about 3) vine-ripened tomatoes, diced
1 cup roughly chopped fresh continental parsley
1 red onion, quartered, thinly sliced

Dressing
60ml (1/4 cup) olive oil
60ml (1/4 cup) fresh lemon juice
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tsp grated lemon rind
1/2 tsp ground cumin
Salt & freshly ground black pepper

Method

Preheat oven to 200°C. Combine the oil and garlic in a small bowl. Cut the Lebanese bread into wedges and use a small pastry brush to brush all over with the oil mixture.

Place the bread wedges on 2 baking trays and bake in a preheated oven for 7 minutes or until crisp and golden.

Meanwhile, to make the lentil and tomato salad, place the lentils in a sieve and rinse well under cold running water. Drain well and place in a large bowl. Add the tomatoes, parsley and onion to the lentils. Toss to combine.

To make the dressing, place the oil, lemon juice, garlic, lemon rind and cumin in a small bowl, and whisk to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Pour the dressing over the lentil salad and toss to combine. Serve with wedges of garlic bread.
