  • “Easy simple recipe, very tasty.I added some celery. Nice combination of spices.”

  • “This was excellent!I made a few revisions, though:1)I soaked the lentils for about 20-30 minutes2)I didn’t measure the spices, and eliminated the sugar.3)I sauteed the garlic with the onions4)Added 1 can of chickpeas.Thanks for the tip on adding lentil water to the skillet with the onions.Not only did it add great flavor, it also made cleanup a snap!Served with warm bread – delicious!”

  • “This was an excellent dish. Only one thing, I found it took longer than 10 mins to soften the lentils before adding the onion. I think I will soak the lentils for several hours prior to cooking next time.”
