lentils: by anglia I only use brown lentils or the French variety. No need to soak them - just cook in a fry pan barely cover with water - they don't take too long, don't let them get mushy. I fry an onion, with garlic and curry type spices, add a can of chopped tomatoes, finely chopped apple, cubed potatoes and a handful of raisins. Towards the end when potatoes are nearly cooked and the drained lentils and s little brown sugar and a knob of butter. Non vegetarians like this recipe it is quite 'carby' though. You can also add some fresh baby spinach towards the end of cooking. Easy as pie, actually easier than pie!.
