Chef notes

There are many reason that I love this warm lentil salad recipe. First, it's because of the spices: the warmth of the coriander, the gorgeous color from the paprika and the little kick from the chile pepper. Second, because it's delicious warm or cold. Third, it's very versatile because you can also swap in seasonal vegetables and add protein on top. Finally, it's great for crowds and potluck dinners.

Technique tip: Salt the lentils while they are still warm.

Swap option: You can use black beluga, red, yellow or your favorite kind of lentil.
