How to Prepare

1. Take a deep utensil and fill it with some water to soak the lentil before cooking.
2. Soak the lentil for 30 minutes before cooking it, so that it can be cooked properly.
3. Now, keep the lentil for cooking and once done, cover it and keep it aside for sometime.
4. Post that, take a blender and make a fine puree of it and keep it aside, as we will use this puree later on.
5. Now, take a frying pan and use some non-sticky spray for cooking.
6. Chop the onion and garlic well, as we have to sauté both.
7. Now, put the chopped onion and garlic in the pan and sauté them.
8. Take blanched and chopped spinach and add both of these - season it and keep it separate.
9. Now add lentil puree, which we prepared previously, to the sauté the onion and garlic - adjust seasoning and keep it aside.
10. Now, take out the cottage cheese and cut thin slices of it and sear it on a hot plate.
11. Add spinach mixture to it and then make a roll of it like cannelloni.
12. Now, arrange this on a plate and then pour the lentil sauce on top.
13. Make sure that the platter is well managed and garnished.
14. You can now relish your piping hot dish.

Instructions

1. We use the non-sticky spray because you will be able to use the oil in the quantity, which is actually needed for cooking. It is healthy and saves money as well.
