Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup green lentils
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/2 cup kasha (buckwheat groats)
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh oregano
1 tomato, chopped
1/3 cup chopped pitted Kalamata olives
2 green onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Steps:

  • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, until lentils are tender but not mushy, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and set aside to let cool; discard bay leaf and drain lentils well.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium saucepot over medium heat.
  • Add kasha, shallot and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until shallot is softened, 3 to 4 minutes.

  • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, until water is almost absorbed and kasha is almost tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Quickly add oregano, recover pot and continue to simmer until liquid is completely absorbed, 3 to 4 minutes more.
  • Remove from heat and set aside, uncovered, to let cool.
  • Put lentils, kasha mixture, tomatoes, olives, green onions, parsley, remaining 2 tablespoons oil, salt and pepper into a large bowl and toss gently to combine.
  • Serve at room temperature or chilled, garnished with feta cheese.
