Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 A week or so ago I made my first lentil loaf using this recipe: http://www.vegsoc.org.au/recipe_details.asp?RecipeID=214 It came out " ok " . I had to cover it in a vegetarian gravy though to really *enjoy* it. It was very, squishy - for some reason I expected it to be firmer. Is it supposed to come out like that? 2 out of 6 of us liked it, but I was hoping I'd love it! --Stacee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 You could add a little more rice or bread crumbs. Those are fresh bread crumbs made with fresh bread.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Maybe it was too moist (veggies too juicy?) bread not dry enough or for some other reason or not cooked long enough. Maybe a 9x12 dish instead of loaf pan. Maybe your oven wasn't hot enough.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I just made my first lentil loaf and I added oat meal to it as well, as bread crumbs. It cut beautifully and was great the next day on whole wheat bread with wasabi mustard. Interesting that this recipe calls for peanut butter. sue mainvillefamily wrote: > > > A week or so ago I made my first lentil loaf using this recipe: > > http://www.vegsoc.org.au/recipe_details.asp?RecipeID=214 > <http://www.vegsoc.org.au/recipe_details.asp?RecipeID=214> > > It came out " ok " .

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I find that when I make a lentil loaf letting it stand for 10 -15 minutes before I slice it helps it to firm up.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Thanks for the advice, I am glad to know that it was in fact supposed to be firm, lol. I'll try another recipe And yes, I thought the peanut butter seemed weird also - but it really did give it a unique flavor! --Stacee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
