Method
- Drain and rinse the lentils. Core the apple and cut it into small cubes. Slice the celery finely. Slice the red onion half very finely. Chop the parsley.
- Roughly chop the walnuts and toast them in a dry pan for 2 minutes, until fragrant.
- In a large bowl, whisk the Dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, olive oil and a pinch of salt.
- Add the lentils, apple, celery, onion, walnuts and parsley and toss well.
- Leave for 5 minutes, so the lentils absorb the dressing, then taste and season with black pepper.
- Share the rocket between two plates and pile the lentil salad on top.
Tip The lentils soak up dressing as they sit, so taste again before serving and add a splash of oil or vinegar if it has gone dry.
