Wishing all my dear friends a very good day!
Lentils—also known locally as parippu—hold a special place in many kitchens, especially in Sri Lankan cuisine, thanks to their versatility, simplicity, and rich nutritional value. We often enjoy it as a warm curry with rice, but today, we’re giving it an exciting twist by transforming it into a vibrant and healthy lentil salad. Light yet satisfying, this salad is a wonderful way to enjoy lentils in a new form—whether as a light lunch, a side dish, or a part of a nutritious meal. It’s also perfect for those looking for a plant-based option without compromising on flavor.

So let’s take a look at how to prepare this delicious dish, step by step!
