Rinse the green lentils and boil them with 3 cups of water for 22 minutes.
Finely chop the onion and soften it in half the butter for 5 minutes.
Add the beef mince and fry for 8 minutes until its juices evaporate.
Add the tomato paste, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes and fry for 2 minutes.
Add the cooked lentils to the mince mixture and cook for 6 minutes.
Warm the gurut, yogurt, and 1 cup of hot water over low heat for 5 minutes without curdling the yogurt.
Cut the stale bread into large pieces, spread on a plate, and pour over the gurut sauce and lentil beef.
💡 Tip: Warming the yogurt sauce without boiling keeps it from splitting.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Spread the bread on a broad plate and pour the hot lentil beef mixture over it.
