Cook lentils in large pot, cock the lid or you will have a mess to clean up. They will need to cook at least 20 mins once they are boiling, reduce heat and let them simmer.
In large mixing bowl add diced onion, garlic, eggs, breadcrumbs, cornmeal, spices, almonds(I grind mine in the blender on crumb), and tomato sauce.
When lentils are fully cooked, drain, then place in separate mixing bowl and mash.
Add mashed lentils to other ingredients and mix thoroughly.
