Red split lentils are small, orange-red lentils known for their mild, slightly sweet flavour and quick-cooking properties. They break down to a soft, creamy texture, making them perfect for soups, stews, dals, and purees. Their gentle flavour allows them to absorb spices and seasonings, adding richness and body to a variety of dishes.
 
Originating in the Mediterranean and Middle East, red lentils have been cultivated for thousands of years. They are a staple in many traditional cuisines, particularly Indian and Middle Eastern, and are valued for their versatility, nutritional content, and ability to cook quickly.
 
Cooking Instructions
Rinse the lentils until the water runs clear. Add one part lentils to three parts water, bring to the boil, then simmer gently for 10–12 minutes until soft and creamy.
