Ingredients

• 400 g of cooked lentils
• 1 sweet chive
• 1/2 green pepper
• 1/2 red pepper
• 1 Tomate
• 50 g olive oil
• 15g vinegar
• 1 teaspoon heaped with cumin
• 1 teaspoon of curry
• 1 level teaspoon of salt
• 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika

Preparation

1. Put the onion and chopped peppers in the glass and crush 6 seconds, speed 4. We withdraw.

2. Now we add the oil, vinegar and spices. We emulsify 10 seconds, speed 4.

3. We will chop the tomato by hand so that the pieces are well cut (in the thermomix it would make us a little mush because it is a very soft ingredient).

4. In a salad bowl or glass container we put the well drained lentils, all the vegetables and the dressing. Mix well and let it rest for at least 2 hours before taking it so that the flavors mix well. If we can, it would be convenient to stir from time to time during rest.
