Makes 3 servings
Active Time: 35 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Step 1
In a saucepan over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the mirepoix and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Smash 2 cloves of garlic. Add the garlic to the mirepoix and stir until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the lentils and pour in enough water to cover by about ¾ inch. Add a bay leaf, if you have one. Bring to a simmer and cook until the lentils are tender, stirring occasionally, 20 to 30 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil and season generously with salt.
Step 2
Meanwhile, wash the turnips and their tops. Trim and cut the turnips into bite-sized wedges, depending on size. Roughly chop the tops. Quarter the mushrooms lengthwise.
Step 3
In a large frying pan over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the turnips and sauté until nearly tender and lightly browned, 5 minutes. Fold in the turnip tops to wilt, 2 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt. Transfer to a plate. Return the pan to medium-high heat, and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and sauté until tender and browned, 5 to 6 minutes.
Step 4
When the lentils are ready, use the back of a spoon to create divots, and crack in 3 eggs. Turn down the heat to low, cover the pan, and cook until done to your liking, 5 to 8 minutes for soft yolks. Season the eggs with salt.
Step 5
Scoop the warm lentils and eggs into bowls, and top with the turnips and mushrooms. Sprinkle with the dukkah and serve warm.
