Notes
NOTES: Red lentils are our favorite lentil for this recipe and you can use canned lentils. To cook your own lentils yielding 3 cups for this recipe: Simmer 1 ¼ cups lentils with 4 cups water for 20 minutes or until softened. Drain any excess water. The optional vegetable broth is suggested if your final mixture is sticking to your pan and needs (or you prefer) additional “sloppiness.”
