Hubby loved this recipe. Quite flavourful and nice textures.
I wanted to like this - I've been wanting to find a good lentil recipe. I found the green lentils took much longer to cook than the recipe indicated. In the end it was just ok, and it made a mountain of it, and no one wanted the leftovers.
Simmered the lentils as stated in the recipe, added more broth as needed BUT found them to be beyond 'al dente' when served - they were under cooked. Need to do longer than the stated 30 min - next time, I'll go for 40 min and TASTE-TEST before serving. Otherwise, a healthy, budget conscious meal.
I used spicy wine churizo sausage, and it was very tasty. The dish overall was a little spicy (but I maybe put in too much chili pepper). Definitely needed more liquid as it cooked.
I used honey mustard smokies for this and it was super tasty. We will definitely make it again through the summer. I also had to add a lot more liquid. Maybe an extra cup of water or so.
I found the broth, wine and tomato paste wasn't quite enough to keep the lentils moist during simmer. Needed to add almost a cup of water/broth mix. Turned out great and very tasty though! Thanks!
