Red lentil pancakes // Galettes de lentilles corail [EN/FR]

Hello friends and food lovers! I hope you're all well and having a great start to your day đ
A while ago, I bought some red lentils to make a lentil dahl, and we really liked them. And a few days ago, I came across a recipe for red lentil pancakes... and since I had some left over... I gave it a try!
If you regularly read my posts, you've probably noticed that I'm a fan of pancakes made from anything and everything: chickpeas, kidney beans, corn, potatoes, beets... đ€Ł
But I'd never tried red lentil pancakes before!
Here's the recipe for 4 people (between 15 and 20 pancakes depending on the size) đ
Ingredients

- 220 grams of red lentils;
- 3 medium-sized potatoes;
- 1 egg;
- 2 shallots;
- 1 garlic clove;
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch;
- 1 teaspoon paprika;
- 1 teaspoon curry powder;
- salt and pepper;
- olive oil.
Preparation steps
To begin, I washed and peeled the potatoes. I cut them into cubes:


Then, I added them to a pot of water.


I also added the red lentils to the pot:



Then, I turned on the heat, and when the water started to boil, I started a timer. Let it cook for 10 minutes.

Once the 10 minutes are up, drain the potatoes and lentils.

And mash them to make a purée.

Next, I took care of the shallots and the garlic clove: I chopped them and placed them in the mincer:




Once they were well chopped, I added them to the mashed potatoes and red lentils:

Then, in a bowl, I placed the egg:

And I added the spices: 1 teaspoon of curry powder and 1 teaspoon of paprika.


I whisked everything together:


Then, I added 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and whisked everything together again:


I then added the mashed potatoes and red lentils to the bowl:

I added salt and pepper to taste and mixed:

Then, I moved on to cooking the patties! To do this, I heated a little olive oil in a pan:

Then, I added a little batter, which I tried to form into a pancake:

I let it cook for about 3 or 4 minutes on each side:

And here's the result:




I decided to serve the pancakes with green salad! We loved it; it was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The lentil flavor was very present. đ
It's a fairly simple recipe to make and doesn't take a lot of time. The longest part is probably cooking the pancakes. đł
I hope this has made you want to eat red lentil pancakes too! đ
See you soon,

Hello les amis et les food lovers ! JâespĂšre que tout va bien pour vous et que vous passez un bon dĂ©but de journĂ©e đ
Il y a quelque temps, jâai achetĂ© des lentilles corail pour faire un dahl de lentilles et on avait beaucoup aimĂ©. Et il y a quelques jours, je suis tombĂ© sur une recette de galettes de lentilles corail⊠et comme il mâen restait un peu⊠jâai testĂ© !
Si vous lisez rĂ©guliĂšrement mes posts, vous avez dĂ» remarquer que je suis une adepte des galettes de tout et nâimporte quoi : de pois chiche, de haricots rouges, de maĂŻs, de pommes de terre, de betterave⊠đ€Ł
Mais je nâavais encore jamais testĂ© les galettes de lentille corail !
Voici la recette pour 4 personnes (entre 15 et 20 galettes en fonction de la taille) đ
Les ingrédients

- 220 grammes de lentilles corail ;
- 3 pommes de terre de taille moyenne ;
- 1 oeuf ;
- 2 échalotes ;
- 1 gousse dâail ;
- 2 cuillÚres à soupe de fécule de maïs ;
- 1 cuillÚre à café de paprika ;
- 1 cuillÚre à café de curry ;
- du sel, du poivre ;
- de lâhuile dâolive.
Les étapes de préparation
Pour commencer, jâai lavĂ© et Ă©pluchĂ© les pommes de terre. Et je les ai dĂ©coupĂ©es en cubes :


Ensuite, je les ai ajoutĂ©es dans une casserole dâeau.


Jâai Ă©galement ajoutĂ© les lentilles corail dans la casserole :



Puis, jâai allumĂ© le feu et lorsque lâeau sâest mise Ă bouillir, jâai dĂ©marrĂ© un minuteur. Il faut laisser cuire pendant 10 minutes.

Une fois les 10 minutes passées, il faut égoutter les pommes de terre et les lentilles.

Et les écraser pour en faire une purée.

Ensuite, je me suis occupĂ© des Ă©chalotes et de la gousse dâail : je les ai dĂ©coupĂ©es et placĂ©es dans le hachoir :




Une fois quâelles sont bien hachĂ©es, je les ai ajoutĂ©es Ă la purĂ©e de pommes de terre et lentilles corail :

Puis, dans un saladier, jâai placĂ© lâoeuf :

Et jâai ajoutĂ© les Ă©pices : 1 cuillĂšre Ă cafĂ© de curry et 1 cuillĂšre Ă cafĂ© de paprika.


Jâai fouettĂ© le tout :


Ensuite, jâai ajoutĂ© 2 cuillĂšres Ă soupe de fĂ©cule de maĂŻs et jâai de nouveau fouettĂ© le tout :


Jâai ensuite ajoutĂ© la purĂ©e de pommes de terre et lentilles corail dans le saladier :

Jâai salĂ© et poivrĂ© Ă convenance et jâai mĂ©langĂ© :

Ensuite, je suis passĂ© Ă la cuisson des galettes ! Pour cela, jâai fait chauffer un peu dâhuile dâolive dans une poĂȘle :

Puis, jâai ajoutĂ© un peu de pĂąte, Ă laquelle jâai essayĂ© de donner une forme de galette :

Jâai laissĂ© cuire environ 3 ou 4 minutes de chaque cĂŽtĂ© :

Et voici le résultat :




Jâai dĂ©cidĂ© dâaccompagner les galettes de salade verte ! On sâest rĂ©galĂ©s, câĂ©tait croustillant Ă lâextĂ©rieur et fondant Ă lâintĂ©rieur. Le goĂ»t des lentilles Ă©tait bien prĂ©sent. đ
Câest une recette assez simple Ă rĂ©aliser et qui ne prend pas Ă©normĂ©ment de temps. Le plus long est sĂ»rement la cuisson des galettes. đł
JâespĂšre que cela vous a donnĂ© envie de manger des galettes de lentilles corail vous aussi ! đ
Ă bientĂŽt,
Johanna

Wow, this is such a beautifully documented recipeâthanks for sharing! Red lentils are not only budget-friendly and protein-rich, but they also blend perfectly with potatoes for a hearty, nutritious pancake. Your step-by-step images make the process incredibly easy to follow, even for beginners.
I love how you infused the batter with shallots, garlic, paprika, and curryâthose warm spices must give the pancakes a wonderful depth of flavor. The use of cornstarch and egg really helps bind the mixture, ensuring they hold up well during cooking. Plus, the texture looks soft on the inside and crisp on the outsideâideal for both snack and meal times.
This dish is also a great plant-based option (if you skip the egg or use a vegan substitute), making it perfect for a wide range of diets. Thanks again for the inspirationâdefinitely saving this for my next lentil experiment!
