A super simple recipe with only 1 ingredient (ok, with water and salt, too): red lentil tortillas that are naturally grain-free, gluten-free & vegan.

These no-flour wraps come in handy when you want to make tacos, burritos or just some kind of flatbread. They come together very quickly and are naturally:
– Grain-free
– Vegan
– Gluten-free
– Sugar-free
– Egg-free
– Gum-free

At the same time, these gluten-free red lentil tortillas are very high in fiber and high in protein. This makes them perfect for a post-workout snack or for a balanced vegan meal.

CAN I MAKE THIS RECIPE IN A FOOD PROCESSOR?

Yes, you just have to blend it for a bit longer (see the right texture in the process pics).

CAN I MAKE THE RECIPE USING WHOLE RED LENTILS?

To use whole red lentils, you will need to soak the lentils overnight. Otherwise the texture will be too crumbly.

Ingredients

• ½ cup ½ red lentils (100 g)

• 1 cups 1 cold water (250 g)

• a pinch a pinch salt

• fresh herbs (optional)

How to

• Rinse the lentils under cold water for a few seconds.
• Put them in a blender with a cup of water. Cover and let it stand, at room temperature, for at least 1 hour up to 12 hours. (you can also leave it in the fridge and blend the next day)
• After this time, the lentils will absorb most of the water (no worries if there’s still some at the bottom). DO NOT drain the lentils, DO NOT add any water.
• Add a pinch of salt, then blend on high speed until smooth. Optionally, at this stage you can add herbs or spice to boost the flavor.
• Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Once warm, add ¼ of batter to the center of the pan. The batter will be thick, so tilting the pan is not enough for getting a thin tortilla. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter until you get a very thin circle.
• Cook the tortilla for about 2 minutes until the surface appears dry. Slide a spatula underneath the tortilla and flip it on the other side. Let the tortilla cook for an additional minute.
• Place the tortillas on a wire rack to cool and repeat with the remaining batter.

Notes

• You can freeze these tortillas by placing a piece of parchment paper between each of them.
