They are often used in vegetarian p\u00e2t\u00e9s and breads.<\/p>\n<p>First wash them well under running water to remove any dirt that may be present.<br \/>\nSoak for 2-4 hours. Soaking before cooking will reduce the cooking time of the lentils and ease digestion by breaking down compounds that cause bloating. It will also help to remove impurities and improve nutrient absorption. Soaking ensures a better texture and more even cooking.<br \/>\nAdd three parts water to one part lentils to a saucepan, bring to the boil and reduce the heat. Cook for about 20-30 minutes until the lentils are soft but hold their shape. If you want a creamy consistency, cook for longer, stirring frequently. The cooking time depends on the dish you are using the lentils for.<br \/>\nAdd salt only at the end of cooking to prevent the lentils from becoming tough.<\/p>\n<p>The usual recommended daily serving is \u00bd-1 cup of cooked lentils to get the maximum benefit without overloading the body with fibre, which can cause bloating in some people.<\/p>\n<p><em>NOTE.
