@Kasi I use whathever lentils I have in stock, but I have about 20kg of different types, so I'm very rarely struggling to find any.  Missing out the chopped Coriander in stage 4 (if I have none around) does not seem to matter a great deal…I often double up the recipe, so I have some for later

In my town there’s so many cash and carry. Never out of stock for lentils, I have been eating brown lentils Dahl all my life..

Full of protein..

Never come across green lentils, that a first for me..

Thanks for the tips Giles.

Gonna try the temple Dahl.. then again wife will then remix it trying new format of making it even more tasteful.

Lentil overflow storage

I promised I’d make this last time you posted it, but didn’t get around to it. Going shopping today so I plan to make one this week….

Two things: the lentils available at the supermarket are pre soaked. I guess that makes no difference? Just cut down on the time used in step 1?

Secondly, does that make a main for 4-6 people?! I feel like it would need to be trebled to feed my ugly bunch.

It matters not how long you cook for within reason, I leave mine going for about an hour, you just need some bite to the lentils.

I'd double up for your mob

Oh, and bunging some whole peeled hard-boiled eggs in a few minutes before serving, is delicious and bulks it up…..

[neph93]

I was thinking about having it as a side to some fried fish…

[Giles]

Erm, smoked…...

@Giles:

Erm, smoked…...

Smoked fish is my lunch all week. I’m not sharing that with trogs…

[Giles]

Reuben…...

And red rice from The Camargue …..(yes, it is in there somewhere....)

[neph93]

Lovely stuff. I picked up the lentils and some fresh coriander today, the rest of it I have with the exception of some decent chilis. I’ll find them tomorrow.

[Giles]

Next time we ship to you, remind me.  I have a bzillion dried ones from the garden…...Just let me know how many Scovilles you need......

[Giles]

[neph93]

Oh hell yes… a reminder will be sent. Thank you!

[Giles]

This summer was not very conducive for the ripening of tomatoes…Green tomatoe chutney it is then....
