  Surprisingly tasty - the name doesn't really give it justice. Instead of Corriander I used a mixture of thyme, oregano and chives.

  Really delicious and a good store-cupboard standby.

  Absolutely gorgeous. Much better than I expected. I'm going to try adding some flakey white fish as well. Works beautifully with gluten free pasta too.

  Excellent recipe, couldn't recommend it enough. Used canned lentils as I was short of time - just heated them through with the onion mixture.

  Hooray for strore-cupboard recipes and not having to leave the house! Used spring onions and lime as that was what I had knocking about the pantry, worked fine. Sprinkled a bit of feta on top just because I had it. Tasty, nutritious, a good one to remember for future lazy days.

  I really really wanted to enjoy this but it just didn't work for me. I used puy lentils and maybe it works better with brown lentils but i'll be taking this one out of my binder. On the bright side, it cost hardly anything to make and was ready in no time, nothing ventured, nothing gained...

  Easy recipe. I chose brown lentils v PUY to save costs. One thing -be careful on lentil quanity - I would recommend using a third less than the recipe suggests to avoid them dominating the taste of the dish. Also, I used healthy low fat natural yoghurt as opposed to greek yoghurt - again to reduce costs but my view was that it enhanced the dish. Works well with the lemon.
