crispy lemon zest oil for Lentil soup

 

crispy lemon zest- lemon-infused oil as garnish


2 tablespoons olive oil
2 lemons zest  - use a peeler or hand slice thin and   – cut in 1/16″ julienne slices



Heat a small frying pan to medium-high heat. 

Add the olive oil and lemon zest. 

Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes until zest is crispy and golden-brown, tossing constantly. 

Drain the oil into a container and then place the zest on a paper towel and set aside until ready to use.

I like to use this on a lentil soup, i add the zest to the soup then drizzle on some of the lemon infused olive oil.
