Harissa-honey Lentil Salad With Almonds

    Tip: Don’t allow the lentils to cool completely before tossing them in the dressing. If dressed when warm, the lentils will absorb some of the seasonings so they’re flavorful inside and out.

  1. In a large saucepan, combine the lentils, ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper and 5 cups water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high, then reduce to medium and cook, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until the lentils are tender but still hold their shape, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain in a colander and cool for about 10 minutes.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, honey, harissa, cumin and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add the warm lentils, carrots, raisins and parsley; toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve sprinkled with the almonds.
