3-Ingredient Lentil Wraps

Wil Yeung, a plant-based cooking expert, shares a simple recipe for 3-ingredient lentil wraps that are both economical and less processed than store-bought alternatives. The recipe requires just red lentils, water, and salt, emphasizing the ease of preparation. To make the wraps, Yeung soaks one cup of red lentils in boiling water for about 25 minutes, then blends them with fresh water and salt until the mixture resembles a thin pancake batter. Once cooked in a nonstick pan, these wraps are flexible and can be used for various meals, making them a practical option for lunches and quick dinners.

Yeung also demonstrates how to adapt the basic recipe by incorporating greens and spices, such as spinach and garlic powder, to enhance the flavor and color. The versatility of these wraps allows for creative variations, while the neutral base makes them suitable for numerous fillings. Ideal for meal prep, the wraps can be refrigerated for up to two weeks or frozen for longer storage. By turning red lentils into hearty wraps, Yeung shows that home cooking can be both simple and innovative.
