What are your favorite type of lentils, what do you use them in, why are they preferred for that dish than others?
I recently realized I have only had maybe 1 or two types, and upon searching them found they all supposedly taste different and have different textures.
Wherher it is for cheap decent soup or an old family recipe; slap me with some information
We don’t have lentils nearly as much as we should, but when we do, it’s usually mujadara. Here’s a pretty basic recipe. There are fancier ones out there on the internet, but I like to keep it simple and easy.
Do you use that as a side dish? What do you recommend to add as other dishes?
It’s a main dish for us. With the caramelized onions on top and a dollop of sour cream it’s really quite filling.
I’m living on this. So good and filling. Put a dollop of sour cream.
Nice, bookmarking that to make sometime. These recipes all seem to be giving good reason to not need as much meat from the store as well
