Lentil, Spinach and Feta over Rice

The rice looks very “dirty” but tastes very good!

Ingredients:
¾ cup puy lentils
3 cups water
¾ cup rice
100 g spinach
1 tbsp mint, tarragon, or other herbs
1 tbsp honey
75 g feta cheese

Instructions:
1. Rinse the lentils and bring them to the boil in 2 cups of water. Once they have started boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer for 12 minutes.
2. Rinse the rice and add it to the lentils along with the last cup of water. Simmer for another 12 minutes.
3. Wash the spinach and add it, the herbs and the honey. Simmer for about 3-5 minutes, with the cover on, so the spinach wilts.
4. Chop the feta and add it to the pan. Continue cooking over low heat for a couple more minutes, so the feta softens, then stir and serve.
