Steps:
- Place lentils in a heavy saucepan, cover with cold water to a depth of one inch, bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer until the lentils are tender, about 40 minutes. Drain the lentils and set aside, covered.
- While the lentils are cooking, cut the beet tops down to within an inch of the bulbs. Place the beets in a saucepan, cover with water and simmer until they are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain, peel and dice the beets, discarding the stems and roots.
- Heat the oil in a small skillet and add the ginger. Saute for a minute or so, then pour this oil over the drained lentils. Add the diced beets and fold them in.
- Beat the mustard and vinegar together and pour over the salad. Fold all the ingredients together. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve warm or at room temperature.

[email protected]The dressing is a bit too oily for me. I'll try using less olive oil next time.
