A refined vegetarian main or single dish: black lentils, slowly cooked with onion and herbs, are served with a soft goat cheese cream, enhanced by extra virgin olive oil and fresh thyme leaves. A blend of flavors and textures that combines rusticity and delicacy in a modern way.
Finely chop onion, carrot, and celery. Gently sauté in a saucepan with 2 tablespoons of oil.
Add the black lentils, toast for 1 minute, and cover with hot vegetable broth.
Cook over low heat for about 30-35 minutes, adding broth if necessary. At the end of cooking, adjust salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, prepare the goat cheese cream: blend the cheese in a mixer with Greek yogurt, a teaspoon of lemon juice, a drizzle of oil, and a pinch of pepper until smooth and creamy.
Plate the hot lentils, adding a generous spoonful of goat cheese cream in the center.
Finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, fresh thyme, and, if desired, a grind of black pepper.
Store in the refrigerator, in an airtight container, for up to 2 days. Reheat the lentils before serving.
