This is a one person meal (so multiply for the number of people)

In this plate there are 4 colours. It looks a bit like an artist’s palette. That’s what you always have to keep in mind.

My mother always told me that the more color you have in your plate, the healthier the meal.

Lentils (red or black): in a pot (1 cup lentils, 3 cups of water) on medium, stir and wait (add one tablespoon of saffron, two of cumin, shallots (really thin slices), salt and pepper.

cauliflower (in hot water with salt and cover) depending on how you want it (crunchy or not) check with fork, rinse it under cold water, and leave it in fridge so it gets cold. In a small bowl mix mustard (grain) one teaspoon, 2 tablespoon of nut oil, and one of white wine vinegar. Add parsley and mix with the cold cauliflower.

Tomatoes (juicy ones) thinly sliced, white vinegar, oil and shallots (very very thin) in a bowl. Cover the tomatoes with the mixture and leave for 10 minutes. Stir and add pepper and salt.

Presentation: you’re free, you are the artist here, the plate is your palette.

Advice: you will always enjoy food better if it looks good and colorful.
