Equipment

  • 1 Blender
  • 1 Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 500 G Red Lentils
  • 1/4 Cup Water
  • 2 Cloves Garlic Grated
  • 1 TSP Anise Powder
  • 1 TSP Baking Powder
  • 1 TBSP Lemon Juice you can substitute with white vinegar
  • Black Sesame Seeds
  • A Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Soak the red lentils overnight or for at least 4 hours. It's better overnight.
  • Rinse the lentils thoroughly and drain off any excess moisture.
  • Blend the lentils until smooth. Depending on the size of your blender, you may need to do this in batches. If the blending process isn't smooth, add a tablespoon or two of water.
  • Once all the lentils are blended, add 1/4 cup of water to achieve a fluffy, spongy texture.
  • Stir in the grated garlic, anise powder, and salt.
  • Mix in the baking powder and lemon juice until well combined.
  • Grease your molds with oil or butter, then pour in the batter. The dough won't rise significantly, so you can fill the molds nearly to the top, leaving a small gap. Top with sesame seeds.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C for 25 minutes.
