Different mushrooms or mustards change flavor and intensity of the dish; brown mushrooms like crimini or baby portabellas are preferred for stronger flavor. Personal Notes: Cooking lentils - To cook the lentils rinse about 2/3 cup lentils. Place them in a saucepan with 1-1/3 cups of water. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer covered for 15 to 20 minutes for green and yellow varieties or 3 to 5 minutes for red. Drain. There are also pressure cooker methods out there, but I find that this method cooks them sufficiently for my recipes. Nutr.
