Heres three recipes from "Lean Bean Cuisine" by Jay Solomon that I like. Place lentils in plenty of water and cook 45 minutes. Drain reserving 2 cups liquid. Heat oil in large frying pan and add onions, mushrooms, and zucchini. Cook 7 minutes until veggies are soft. Add tomatoes, garlic, chiles, and ginger. Cook 4-5 minutes. Add seasonings and cook 1 minute. Blend in lentils, cooking liquid, potatoes, and carrots. Cook over low for 40 minutes. Add broccoli and cook 5-10 minutes. Serve over Basmati rice. A nice chutney goes well with this. Posted to CHILE-HEADS DIGEST V4 #136 by Kit Anderson on Sep 26, 1997
