If you are not vegan it is a great accompaniment to fish made in the oven with tahini and also with lebanse lubneh. and great served with a tomato and onion salad with vinegar and oil. very leb. great post thanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278743.post-64783743774684277052010-06-28T14:08:37.167+02:002010-06-28T14:08:37.167+02:00I am always on the lookout for lentil recipes - I ...I am always on the lookout for lentil recipes - I love them but hubby gets bored if I don't find new ways to make them!!

I make mine with turmeric, cumin and sweet paprika :)<br />When I was in Israel it was one of the favourite dinner dishes that I made for the commune I stayed in, I tended to make it as a side dish with chicken schnitzel and it was good enough for the vegetarians there to just eat a bowl of that alone so no need to make anything extra for them.<br /><br />A great variation on the theme that we do is also to use pasta rice instead of rice. For some reason, this combination goes very well with a nice piece of fishHilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14881624413081531821noreply@blogger.com
