Directions
Curried Lentils and Rice,This is a recipe I adopted from Zenith’s recipe collection when many unloved recipes were put up for adoption. All of her recipes were very good and this is no exception. Here’s what Zenith had to say about this dish: A tasty vegetarian one-pot meal. (If you’re not a vegetarian, you may wish to make this with chicken broth.),This recipe is always a fan favorite. I’ve never followed it precisely, though. Instead of all the water, use some parts water and a can of coconut milk and a can of tomatoes. I spice more and add crushed red pepper. I’ve used both brown rice and jasmine and both are good.,Hi, I don’t want to leave a review since I think I made some errors but I still thought some input might help anyone else! Since this was a test run (and just for me) used 1/2 cup lentils & 3/4 cup rice. I also added 1/4 tsp coriander. I did not cover the pot tightly, so it took MUCH longer to cook the rice–I kept having to add more liquid (used low sodium chicken broth)! It also needed salt–I saw it in the ingredient list after but it doesn’t say where to add it. So after it was all done cooking, I sprinkled it with 1/2 tsp salt, and hopefully it will be much better tomorrow. I also left out the raisins & apple; personal preference. used the full 3 tsp curry & cooked all the garlic in the beginning. Thanks a bunch for sharing.
