by
Print me

Introduction

Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 3 minutes

Ingredients

Serves: 1-2

  • 250 grams Galbani mozzarella
  • 230 grams precooked green/puy lentils
  • 1 teaspoon ground fennel seeds or fennel pollen
  • 4 tablespoons tahini
  • 1 lemon
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt
  • pepper

Method

  1. Into a food processor, add 4 teaspoons of tahini and the juice of half a lemon. Add your lentils and start to blitz, slowly drizzling in the olive oil. Blitz it until you have a nice smooth hummus, then season with salt, pepper and the crushed fennel seeds.
  2. Griddle some good quality Italian bread or anything nice and crusty you can slice up with a little olive oil drizzled on.
  3. Spread hummus onto the bread and tear over the mozzarella before placing under a hot grill before finishing with a little more olive oil and finely chopped parsley.

Additional Information

Joe's tip: If you are going to cook the lentils from dry, they will need a good boil for about 45 minutes until tender. Toss in a bay leaf and a clove of garlic.
