Ingredients

• 2 Quarts (qt) water
• 4 Pounds (lb) corned beef brisket
• 1 Large onion, whole
• 1 Large carrot, whole
• 1 Stalk celery, whole
• 2 Cloves garlic, whole
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) pickling spice, packaged
• 0.25 Cups packed brown sugar
• 0.5 Teaspoons (tsp) ginger, ground
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) Dijon-style prepared mustard
• 0.25 Cups honey
• 0.25 Cups red chile sauce (optional)
• 2 Cups dry lentils
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) fresh parsley, minced

Steps

1. Tie the pickling spice in a square of cheesecloth. In a large stew pot, combine water, brisket, whole vegetables, garlic, and pickling spices. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 3 hours.
2. Place a cooking rack in a shallow baking dish or pan. Remove brisket from cooking liquid, and place fat side up on the rack. Reserve cooking liquid. Mix together brown sugar, ginger, mustard, and honey. Spoon glaze over the meat.
3. Bake, uncovered, in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 40 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, prepare the lentils. In a medium saucepan, combine 3 cups of the reserved cooking liquid from the brisket and chile sauce. Bring to a boil. Add lentils, return to a boil, and reduce heat to simmer. Continue cooking for 30 to 40 minutes, or until lentils are tender. Sprinkle with parsley, and serve with the brisket.
