    Good, but don't forget to cook the lentils before hand before step 2! :-s

    I made this yesterday and it is delicious. However, I think there may be a mistake in the recipe. The ingredients include: 1 lemon, half chopped and half cut into four wedges, then in the method it says, add the lemon juice. I chopped the lemon into small pieces and added it and it was fine, but it would have been nicer if it had just been the lemon juice.

    Really nice quick dish. There are a couple of flaws in the recipe, which helpfully have been pointed out above - so it takes a bit longer than stated as the lentils need to be boiled separately before you begin. Alterations I made were: I poached the fish in water, a splash of milk and a bay leaf, this was a bit healthier and made sure the fish stayed moist. I cooked the lentil dish as stated but separately to the fish, adding some chopped mushrooms and some of the poaching stock with the garlic and capers, then a little more poaching stock when the lentils went in the pan. Very tasty!
