A large bag of red lentils was calling me from my pantry. Not sure what to do with them, I picked up “Appetite for Reduction” and came across a Red Lentil and Root Vegetable dish. The dish comes together so quickly that I was sure it wouldn’t have much flavor. Thankfully, I was wrong. Instead of the root vegetables the recipes calls for, I used Yukon Gold potatoes that I had on hand. The red lentils become rich and creamy and the spices pack a flavorful punch. Oven-roasted okra rounded out the meal as a side.
I hope you all are well! I’ll have more posts up soon.
Oh goddess! Roasted and grilled okra is my new discovery. Can’t imagine why I didn’t know about it earlier. Love love love dal.
Isn’t roasted okra wonderful? I tried it for the first time last summer and now I’m hooked. I haven’t tried it grilled, but I will definitely try it soon!
