Ocado Green Lentils. A pantry staple for a reason, dried green lentils are a firm and versatile pulse. The small, lens-shaped lentils have a beautiful deep green colour and a robust, peppery, and earthy flavour. Unlike their red counterparts, green lentils hold their shape well when cooked, making them an excellent choice for a wide variety of dishes.
They are a fantastic base for salads and grain bowls, adding a hearty texture and rich flavour. They also work wonderfully as a meat substitute in savoury dishes, absorbing flavours beautifully.
Green lentils are also a great choice for soups and stews, where their firm texture ensures they won't fall apart during cooking. They are also a delicious side dish on their own or can be used to create a satisfying base for vegetarian burgers and patties.
