This sounds very good and simple. I am always looking for lentil

recipes...since there no need for soaking;) Thanks! Bonus - just

make some great veggie broth.

Hi Mike:

 

Not a stupid question. I use dried lentils, they take about 20 minutes to

soften.

 

Just wash and throw into a pot of water. Usually a 2 to 1 ratio like rice

bring to a boil and simmer for about 20 minutes.

Mike, just measure them out (dry), look at them and take out any

pebbles, clumps of mud, or rotten lentils (all of this is rare, but

better to look now than break a tooth on a pebble!). Then give them a

quick rinse in a colander, and assemble the recipe. For this recipe,

the baking part *is* the cooking; usually the recipe will specify

" cooked lentils " or " cooked rice " if they're already cooked. :-)

 

You'll do fine though - just try it! :-)

 

*hugs*
