P70: Red Lentils with Zucchini

Img_3532
Nom! These red lentils were delcious. I went to the bulk section and grabbed the lentils and all the spices before I got started. This is the first time I've cooked with cardamom seeds and the result was delicious. It was so good that this was actually the second time I made the dish in the last two weeks. This was our main dish of the night and I served with a side of sauteed kale.

Tips:

  • As usual, I halved the oil. The author tends to out oil us all. I didn't think it was needed.
  • Added 2 more zucchini because I thought it didn't have enough the first time. 
  • I tripled the recipe at one point but only doubled the bay leaves, cinnamon & cardamom pods. It was delicious! We ate this for dinner and lunch throughout the week! 
  • This has 4 stars because it wasn't as spicy as we might of liked.
