Classic Georgian Roasted Lentils Dumplings

Assemble the ingredients: lentils, potato, salt, cumin, yogurt, garlic, olive oil.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the lentils and cook until roasted.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Georgian flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Georgian accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
