METHOD
1 / Chop the onion and garlic
and fry in oil before
adding the lentils to
the pan. Add the bay
leaves and 500ml
of water.
2 / Boil on a medium heat
for 30 minutes until
some lentils have
softened to a smooth sauce
and the rest are whole but
tender. Add water if dry.
3 / In a new pan, boil the pasta
until al dente (10 minutes will
do it). Drain the pasta, add to
the lentils, stir in some fresh
parsley and drizzle with olive
oil. Bellissimo!

METHOD
1 / Bring a large pan of salted
water to the boil and chuck in
your lobsters headfirst. With
just 1.5g of fat for every 20g
protein, they’re the perfect
fuel for lean growth. Cook for
eight minutes until bright red.
Drain and cool.
2 / Twist and crack open the
claws, legs and body before
peeling the shell and pulling
out the meat. Slice your spoils
into mouthfuls. Bring a pan of
salted water to boil and cook
the pasta until al dente.
3 / In another pan mix your
chopped chillies and garlic
with white wine and lobster
meat and cook for three
minutes on a medium heat.
Throw it all together along
with the tomatoes and herbs,
then plate up.
