Add lentils and tomatoes. Bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and let simmer, stirring often, for about 20 minutes or until lentils are tender without losing their shape. Add lemon juice and stir. Let cool a little bit. (You can prepare the lentil filling in advance and put in an hermetic container. It will be good in fridge up to 2 days. Reheat before doing the remaining steps). Add cilantro and stir.
