So for some reason I have four partially-used bags of lentils in my cupboard. I looked to my old friend, Mollie Katzen for support, and made a double batch of a new recipe (new to me anyway) of walnut-lentil veggie patties.
The house smelled divine- my mother said when she dropped in this morning. I was sauteeing finely chopped onions and mushrooms and walnuts. The recipe also called for dry mustard. The result was a bit moist so I baked, then broiled the heck out of them and now they are tolerable, but I added extra salt, as I do when I suspect the cookbook author is "health conscious." And now they are too salty. And there are a heck of a lot of them.
So suffice it to say I am still on the lookout for a way to use up my lentils (still four bags but a cup less). I have always wanted to try a lentil curry- maybe that will be next.
