I wish I knew more about you.I assume you mean dry lnlites.Lentils are usually boiled with other stuff to give them more flavor.Until most dry beans, they don't take very long to cook.You can make lentil soup with water, ham hocks, bay leaf, thyme, onion.But a lot of people don't want to cook with ham.You can also cook them with slice of ginger root and other seasoning and serving them over rice. I believe that Indians call the various and many forms of this dish dahl.Lentils are mighty tasty and a good source of protein.
