How To Make Wraps with Spiced Lentils & Yoghurt

  1. To make the spiced lentils, heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the onion and fry for 5 minutes until golden, then add the garlic and spices and fry for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
  3. Meanwhile, chop the sun-dried tomatoes and place them in a bowl with the cooked lentils.
  4. Add the onion & spice mixture, along with 3–4 Tbsp vinaigrette from the sun-dried tomatoes.
  5. Stir to combine and set aside.
  6. To make the tahini yoghurt, whisk together the yoghurt, tahini and water in a small bowl.
  7. Season to taste with salt and ground black pepper.
  8. To assemble the wraps, place the wraps in a preheated pan and lightly toast for 1 minute on each side.
  9. Place 2–3 Tbsp lentils in the center of each wrap, then fold in the sides and roll up the wraps tightly.
  10. Slice each wrap into four or five pieces. Arrange in a circle on a serving plate, alternating with slices of cucumber.
  11. Spoon over the tahini yoghurt and top with pickled red onions (or thinly sliced fresh red onions).
  12. Dust with extra paprika or chili powder and scatter over some chopped parsley.
