This is a keeper! I rescued this from the black hole of my recipe box today and am so glad I did. Followed recipe exact with one exception; I thought I had tomato puree, but when I saw that I didn't, I had to improvise with leftover spaghetti sauce. Didn't seem to matter as the taste is still wonderful. Nice and spicy! Watch your lentils as they do cook up very quickly. Thank you for posting this recipe!

This was delicious! This was also the first time I had ever made curry or used lentils and I am certainly going to make this again. I used a can of Italian Tomatoes instead of the fresh tomato and it was wonderful. My husband, who by the way is not too crazy over new and different food, loved it and had seconds!

It tasted like take out! Great recipe with lots of flavor! I wouldn't change a thing. (my husband recommended cutting back on the curry)

This is the best lentil curry I've found! Even my non-lentil eating husband said to make this again. Only thing I might change next time is to add less lentils. I like it a little saucier.

this is pretty good as written, but i did make some changes to up the nutrition a bit. i added a chopped red pepper, 2 cups shredded spinach, and 1 cup chopped carrot when i added the tomato. i also added a dash of cinnamon, some additional sea salt and ground pepper. i garnished with chopped almonds. lovely.

I followed the recipe but doubled the garlic as other people suggested. I also pureed the final product and served with rice and peas. Very good and flavorful. The whole family liked it and the house smelled wonderful!

A good mix of flavors, but even after I added water it came out very thick. Next time I'll use canned tomatoes with just a dash of tomato paste to keep things together. Also, I think this would be very good with a yogurt/cucumber dressing.

So Good!!! And easy too. the hardest thing was rinsing the lentils - it practically makes itself. This one will be going into the regular rotation!

The lentils cook very quickly - recipe did not indicate this. Very mushy.

This calls for a lot of spice, but didn't seem to have as much flavor as I was expecting. I think the problem is adding the spices to the cooked onions. I suggest setting the onions aside and cooking the spices by themselves for 2 minutes, adding the tomato and then adding back in the onion.

This recipe is a staple in our house. I make a large batch and freeze it into lunch size portions. I cook the lentils in chicken broth and water it down so it is more like a soup.

This recipe was lovely. My room-mate and I enjoyed it a lot, however, we both felt as though the spices could have been kicked up a bunch. Next time I will add more red pepper and possibly more onion. This recipe is certainly a keeper!

i used brown lentils and a can of diced tomatoes, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. i found this to be dry, but maybe i didn't add enough water to the pot.

I just finished making this and it couldn't be yummier. I had no curry paste (I know, I suck) so used some extra powder instead, but I ran out of that too and added a bit of garam masala to compensate. I followed the recipe for everything else except I used only half the required salt, and since I didn't have tomato puree I replaced it with leftover spaghetti sauce & some cooking cream. Overall I'm amazed at how simple it can be to make a really delicious and nutritious meal!

Very good, first time cooking lentils and I made it into a soup. Added celery, carrots, cerano peppers, chicken stock and water. (Dropped the cumin and only had ginger powder) Everyone loved it and although I doubled the recipe 6 guys nearly finished it off. Thanks for the great base.
