The Pardina lentil, also known as 'Spanish Brown', has a distinctive nutty flavor, and it holds its shape well after being cooked, making it perfect for salads.
Easy to prepare, delicious, and hearty, this salad is substantial enough to work as a complete meal, but also great as a healthy side dish with some chicken or seafood.

  • 350 g Purple potatoes, cut into cubes
  • 150 g Dried pardina lentils
  • 2-3 Kale leaves, finely chopped
  • 200 g Snow peas, trimmed and sliced
  • 1 Red onion, peeled and sliced
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced
  • 150 g Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 4 tbsp Olive oil
  • 3 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper
  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Place diced purple potato cubes in a baking tray. Toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 30 minutes until tender.
  2. Bring 500-ml water to boil in a saucepan. Add in pardina lentils. Return to boil, reduce heat and simmer until tender, approximately 20 minutes. Drain.
  3. Add in roasted purple potatoes, chopped kale, snow peas, onion, garlic and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with the rest of the olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Toss and season to taste. Enjoy it right away!

Have never had pardina lentils, but then I've never been much of a lentil fan because I've always found them tasteless and mushy. Love how you describe these as nutty and able to keep their shape. Might just have to give lentils another try because your salads looks great!

I'd make this my lunch! SO yummy. I usually use French green lentils, but I'll see if I can spot those brown pardina lentils locally. It's been way too long since I've made a lentil salad.

Hi Angie, what a beautiful delicious and colorful salad. I bet the apple cider vinegar gave this meal a nice punch. I usually keep a container of lentils around and add them to salads, eggs and toast. Hope you are having a great week.

My mother was a big lentil fan, so I was introduced to them as a child. I still love them...in soups, in salads and as a side. Love this idea, a warm salad with a great vinaigrette.

tigerfish 23/2/17 05:21

I usually cook lentils in soups/stews. How can I forget them in salads? But first, I must get the correct variety. The red lentils I use in soups/stews might not hold up well when used in salads.

It's good to see purple potatoes are out there now. We used to grow them, until blight finally did for them a few years ago. What a delicious looking salad. I love lentils.
