Lentils with Tahini - A Boulder Kitchen

Ingredients

• 1 cup French lentils ((They are similar to the Le Puy lentils, but just grown in a different region))
• 2 Tablespoons butter (I used organic ghee infused with turmeric from Trader Joe's the last time I made them -- amazing!)
• 2 Tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, chopped
• 2 teaspoons cumin, ground
• 1 28oz can organic whole tomatoes (Puree or crush before adding to lentils)
• 1/4 cup tahini
• 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup cilantro (Optional)
