Lentil dishes, including lentil cutlets, are recommended for diseases of the cardiovascular system, diabetes, and digestive tract problems (in this case, lentils are consumed as a puree). It is also believed that lentils are beneficial for the development of the fetus, which is why its presence is essential in the diet of a pregnant vegetarian woman. Eating lentils for gout is not recommended. There is a worldview that lentils do not accumulate toxins (Ancient Greek toxin (toxikos) - poisonous - poison of biological origin) and radionuclides, therefore it is considered an environmentally friendly product.

To make lentil cutlets, you can use any variety of this type of legume. But you should take into account the cooking time of each type. Thus, greenish lentils take longer to cook and are more difficult to chop. Reddish lentils are the fastest to cook and simply soften.

For a difficult-to-cook variety, it is recommended to soak the lentils for several hours in warm water. To make lentil cutlets, lentils are boiled, crushed into puree or passed through a meat grinder, and the remaining ingredients (for example, sautéed onions), spices, and herbs are added.

Wonderful dish, thank you!
I switched to vegetarianism quite recently, and had never worked with lentils before.
Your recipe was a real salvation, very tasty. I got 10 impressive cutlets, quite convenient. The taste is excellent, very pleasant, there is no meat fat or heaviness, just density. Not bad cool or warm, just heat up in the microwave. They are especially wonderful with sour cream and garlic.

My meat-eaters also like the cutlets; my husband takes them to work as a side dish, and my friend has a cool snack along with dairy.

So thank you for the recipe, it is very helpful for beginning vegetable eaters. I recommend it to everyone.

Step-by-step recipe with photos

Red lentil cutlets are a tasty and healthy dish that is also easy to prepare. Because it does not contain meat components, it is also perfect for a Lenten menu. There are many types of lentils on sale; now we choose reddish ones because they cook faster. But for convenience, we will also soak it for two hours.

Seasonings and spices can be added to your own taste. I’m currently using a mixture of Provençal herbs, you can add your own - suneli hops, basil, aromatic mixture for meat, etc. I will roll the cutlets in flour. Instead of flour, you can use breadcrumbs.

Soak the lentils for two hours. We see that the grains have swollen and doubled in size.

Salt the water in which the lentils were soaked, add fresh water, add salt and put on fire.

Boil for 20 minutes.

After 20 minutes, place the boiled lentils in a colander and wait until they cool down.

In the meantime, chop the onion and grate the carrots for sautéing.

Fry the onions and carrots in sunflower oil (use half).

Grind the lentils and sauteed vegetables in a blender or pass them through a meat grinder.

You can grind until smooth. I chopped it so that the lentils were completely ground, but the carrots remained in pieces.

Add pepper and spices to taste.

Add a spoon or two of flour to bring the thickness to the most comfortable level (add minimal flour).

Let's form cutlets. Place a spoon or two of the mixture into the flour and begin rolling into round or oval patties. First, roll in flour, then grease your hands with sunflower oil and shape the cutlets in your hands.

Fry the cutlets in sunflower oil.

Immediately turn on medium heat to form a crust. Turn over and fry on the other side.

Serve the cutlets with any sauce, sour cream, adjika - whatever you like!

The mixture of reddish lentil cutlets comes out tender and crumbly. Prepare for health during Lent and any day!
