About Lentil cake

Lentil Cake is a nutritious and versatile dish rooted in South Asian and Middle Eastern cuisines, though variations can be found worldwide. Typically made from ground lentils, spices, and herbs, it may include ingredients like onion, garlic, carrots, or egg as binding agents. Lentils are an excellent source of plant-based protein and dietary fiber, making Lentil Cake a filling and heart-healthy option. Rich in essential nutrients like folate, iron, and magnesium, it supports overall wellness and energy levels. Low in saturated fat, it complements weight management and heart health; however, added oils or high-calorie toppings may increase its fat content. Often baked or lightly pan-fried, this dish offers satisfying texture and flavor while catering to vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets. Lentil Cake serves as a wholesome alternative to traditional meat patties and is a simple way to enjoy the nutritional benefits of legumes.
