An Easy, Five-Star Salad to Convert the Lentil-Skeptical
Briefly

Yossy Arefi's lentil and sweet potato salad perfectly showcases the texture of lentils. Cooked until tender yet firm, they shine with sage-scented brown butter vinaigrette and roasted sweet potatoes.
This lentil salad can stand alone as a meatless meal, complement meat or fish, or be enhanced with goat cheese for added creaminess and acidity, showcasing its versatility.
Zainab Shah's baked tamarind fish offers a quick and flavorful seafood option, infused with tamarind concentrate's depth, palm sugar, and chile powder, creating a lively dish perfect over rice.
Each presented dish—Arefi's salad and Shah's fish—demonstrates the versatility of ingredients, encouraging creative pairings while highlighting how simple preparations can yield impressive dinners.
