  Very quick, easy. Added a wee bit more curry powder than the recipe said to spice it up a bit more. Absolutely delicious - will definitely make again and again.

  A great fast supper; I also upped the curry powder for a bit more of a kick! Lentils would be good with other curries too.

  Maybe I did something wrong, but I found that the chopped lime quarter gave the lentil mixture a nasty aftertaste. You could just taste the pith and it made it really sour. Next time I'll squeeze the juice from the lime quarter in rather than chopping it up. It shows potential of being a really great dish, but the chopped lime ruined it somewhat for me.

  Excellent fish dish that is simple to make. Used a little less oil than the the recipe suggests - found that 1 tbsp was sufficient to fry the onions - and prefer to squeeze in the juice from the lime quarter as adding it chopped did seem to leave a bitter taste.

  Very good for such an easy meal. We had it with basmati rice. sort of stirred it up and yoghurt and cucumber and mint! Very yummy. None left and could have sold seconds easily!!!
