Yes you can. I think Ceres sell them.

I had to google what 'Puy' lentils were, but looks like the 'French' lentils that I buy in Countdown. Standard brown lentils are similar imo.

Most bulk food markets, health food shops and some supermarkets will have them, sometimes labelled "green lentils". They are a dull olive green colour.

As an alternative (and in my opinion even better) are the small black lentils labelled "caviar lentils".

The black lentils are also known as "Beluga lentils".

My local Indian food shop sells every kind of lentils, including Puy.

I buy mine at Countdown or NW and I think I've seen them in Pak & Save too.
