Lentil-bread


Make the lentils (I used red ones)

1 decilitres of Lentils
2 decilitres of water
1/2 a teaspoon of salt
Let simmer for ten minutes or so.

Bread;
Mix the lentils with 2 decilitres of water and liquidise.
Pour the lentil-liquid into a bowl. Add 5 decilitres of tepid water and 50 grammes of Yeast. Stir until the yeast has blended with the other ingredients. Then add 2 teaspoons of salt, 1/2 a decilitre of oil (corn, rape-seed or some other tasteless oil) and 1-2 tablespoons of syrup. Stir. Add 3-4 decilitres of oat flakes. Lets swell. After 5 minutes add wheat flour; 10-12 decilitres (until the dough is no longer sticky).

Let rise for about 45 minutes covered by a cloth (preferably in a warm place).

Shape two loaves and put them upon a baking sheet. Put the sheet upon the cooker and switch on the oven (175 degrees Celsius). Let the loaves rise for about half an hour then shove them into the middle of the oven and bake them for 25-30 minutes.

PS. I didn't make the picture it's taken from the ICA-website and I believe they hold the copyright.
