2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1. Drain soaked lentils and blend with water, garlic, salt, and oregano until smooth. 2. Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. 3. Pour batter into the pan and spread thinly. Cook for 5 minutes per side until golden. 4. Add your desired toppings. 5. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake at 220°C (425°F) for 8-10 minutes until toppings are cooked.
