-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/4 cups dried red lentils -- picked over, rinsed and drained
3 cups water
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 serrano chili -- seeded and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic -- minced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf (Italian) parsley
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (fresh coriander)
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
In a saucepan over high heat, combine the lentils, water, bay leaf and 1/4
teaspoon of the salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover
partially and simmer until the lentils are tender but still firm, 12 to 14
minutes. Drain and discard the bay leaf. Set aside.
In a small frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chili
and garlic and saute until softened, about 1 minute. Add the cumin, ground
coriander and cinnamon and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove the
pan from the heat.
In a large bowl, combine the lentils and the spice mixture. Toss gently to
mix. Stir in the parsley, cilantro and mint and season with the remaining
1/4 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Stir in the vinegar and serve
immediately.

This Moroccan-style dish is quick to assemble. Serve it as a side dish
with roasted [favorites]. In larger portions, it also makes a satisfying
main course.
