Versatile Fake Indian Lentils

Αυτή η συνταγή είναι δικής μου "εμπνεύσεως" την είχα γράψει σε ένα φόρουμ που είχαμε φτιάξει με φίλες μου γι αυτό είναι στα αγγλικά.

Versatile Fake Indian Lentils

Take "red" lentils (they're actually orange-coloured and I call them indian lentils), rinse them and cook them in water double their size on low fire for 10 mins. Stir often and watch out in cese you need to add a little more water. Then add a good amount of ready indian sauce of choice -masala, curry, mango chutney...I prefer lime chutney. That's it!

Very quick and tastes as if you just ordered in from the indian take-away. To fake it as home-made, sprinkle some fresh coriander or other oriental herb on top.


* a healthy tasty side dish for meat
* a meal on its own right, since it has a good balance of carbs and protein.
* a spicy spread or dip.
* works as spicy sauce on pasta or rice (preferably whole-grain)
* or add water and make an oriental soup out of it.
