A delicious but very unconventional "stir-fry", suitable for vegans, delicious over rice (in a main dish) ...in a pita...or plain (as a side dish). Only use a high quality (and REAL) soy sauce. It REALLY makes a difference.

SERVES 6 -8 , 1 large platter (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups lentils (yellow or green)
4 cups water
3-4 large leeks, chopped
3-4 garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
2-3 tablespoons sesame seeds

Directions

1
Put water and lentils in a pot, bring to a boil then cover and simmer until liquid is gone. In other words; cook lentils.
2
In a deep skillet, saute leeks and garlic until glassy in either olive oil (vegan) or butter (dairy, vegetarian).
3
Add soy sauce and continue cooking over heat for two to three minutes.
4
Add sesame seeds, basil and oregano, cook together (stir fry) for a few minutes to blend the flavors.
5
Add cooked lentils and toss/mix.
6
Serve and enjoy.
