Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 large onion, chopped
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup dry red lentils, rinsed and drained
6 cups water
1 bunch collard greens – rinsed, stemmed and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅓ cup lemon juice
Directions
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in onion and salt; cook until softened and translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in lentils and cook for 1 minute. Pour in water, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until lentils are tender, about 15 minutes.
While the lentils are cooking, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add collard greens and cook until wilted, about 10 minutes.
When lentils are tender, stir in collard greens, garlic, cumin, and cinnamon; simmer for 10 minutes.
Stir in lemon juice before serving.
