Coastline Crispy Lentils

Just in time for World Pulses Day, here’s a great recipe celebrating the humble lentil with a sprinkling of our delicious Coastline Salt. This crunchy topping is fantastic added to salads, soups or roasted vegetables.

Thank you Steve Guy from Havenhills Field and Kitchen who said,

I chose Coastline Salt as the aniseed and lemon flavours from the fennel dulse and lemon verbena bring a light and fresh balance to the toasted flavours of the roasted lentils while the salt within the mix is the perfect carrier to season the overall dish.”
