This was very easy and tasted just like my favorite Indian restaurants. I did add a bit of salt and would use just a tad less water next time. I also used my tamarind paste since I didn't have extract. I made it with dates from Indio California. Very tasty. Great with tandori chicken and naan.

I this rice was delicate, tender and very fragrant. I still can't believe how good it turned out. I followed the recipe to a T. However, I tranfered the browned rice mixture to my rice cooker for the final simmer period. Excellent!

My family loved these lentils. I did substitute part heavy cream and plain yogurt instead of the coconut milk. I also used vegetable broth instead of water as others suggested. I had to cook the lentils longer than the recipe suggested so I added more water. I will definitely make them again with the Indian Style Basmati Rice also on this site.
