  3. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, (add the spinach at 20 minutes, and cook for a further 3 minutes until spinach is wilted). Remove from oven and toss in torn basil leaves

  4. If having sauce with the nomelette, throw all ingredients into a blender or small food processor and blitz until combined, you can add water to the mixture if you prefer a runnier consistency.

  5. Drain and rinse the soaked lentils, and throw all nomelette ingredients into a blender or small food processor and blitz until a smooth batter consistency forms.

  6. Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add a soup ladle amount of the batter to the frying pan, and spread around the pan like an omelette. Let it cook for 3-5 minutes or until golden on the bottom, flip and cook the other side for a further 2-3 minutes.

  7. Remove from pan, place filling on 1 half of the omelette, and fold. If you made sauce to accompany, drizzle over the top before serving!
