I love lentils, so here is one way to make them.

One of my favourite dishes my Grandma makes. I've been learning how to make all of my favourite dishes recently and I think I've got these down to a tee. The trick is letting the lentils cook until they lose their shape and it's like thick orange soup. you don't want to be able to see round circles, at the most a few semi circular shapes. Its important that you DO NOT add the salt to the lentils, this will make them hard. Serve with fluffy basmati rice.

Yummy over brown or basmati rice.

My husband doesn't even like lentils, but he likes these!

Murgh aur masoor dal is really like a hearty stew, perfect for cold winter days. You could add vegetables to it as well, such as shelled peas or 1/2-inch lengths of green beans. It you do this, put in the vegetables at about the same time as you in the lemon juice.
