1
Prepare the Greek Yoghurt first. In a small bowl, stir together the yoghurt, garlic, lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Check seasoning and add more lemon juice or salt as needed, then store in refrigerator until required.
2
Rinse the lentils well. Add to a pot with enough water to cover completely, also adding the two garlic cloves, parsley root and piece of carrot for sweetness and flavour. Simmer over medium heat until the lentils are al dente – around 18-20 mins.

Stir to combine and set aside to cool. Check seasoning prior to serving, you may need a little more salt or some sourness from an extra dash of vinegar.
