Gather @brown lentil{250%g}, @fresh parsley{1%bunch}, @ground cumin{1.5%tsp} and @black pepper{}.

Simmer the lentils in plenty of water until tender but still holding their shape, about 18 minutes; drain well. ~{18%minutes}

While the lentils cook, whisk the @garlic{2%clove}, cumin, @lemon{1.5} juice, @olive oil{60%ml}, @salt{1%tsp} and pepper into a dressing.

Toss the drained lentils with half the dressing while they're still warm, so they soak it up.

Fold in the diced @tomato{2}, @spring onion{3} and most of the parsley.

Add the remaining dressing, toss again, and adjust with more lemon or salt to taste.

Scatter with the remaining parsley and serve warm or at room temperature, with pita bread for scooping.
