   How to make it
   dice the potatoes, chop the onion and add the lentils to a pan. Cover in water and let cook for about half an hour on medium heat until the lentils and potatoes are soft but not mushy.
   
   While it cooks, make the dressing, in a cup mix all the ingredients and whisk for about 2 minutes until the olive oil and water blends. then slice the tomato into segments.
   
   Once the lentils and potatoes are cooked. strain until all of the water are out, and while still hot, pour the dressing over them. the heat makes the dressing soak really well in the potato.
   
   when serving decorate with the tomato slices and yogurt.

   A couple of pointers:
   We are trying to cut down on cholesterol, so no salt for us, but it can be added to the dressing, also, you can replace the yogurt with cream cheese or ricotta.
   We eat it warm, but it's also really good cold, and can keep in the fridge for a week or so.
