Blend lime juices, vinegar and a pinch of salt in a salad bowl, then toss in the onion rings. Whisk together the oil, cumin and garlic. Add into the onions with the cooled lentils, coriander, tomatoes, spinach and plenty of seasoning.
This salad just gets better overnight. Therefore, it’s perfect to prepare in the evening as a side dish for dinner and then take rest for lunch.
