Maria Luisa Scott and Jack Denton Scotts have traveled the world and collected its recipes in their many books. This is from “A World of Pasta”. Posted for ZWT3 – Northern Africa. The lentils must be soaked for 2 hours before cooking so plan ahead.
These unusual, luscious lentils are a traditional Lenten meal of Oaxaca, Mexico. Pineapple, plantain, cloves and allspice give this dish a tropical feel – plus there’s plenty of garlic for zip. Garnish with fried plantain slices.
1 pot, 1 hour = simple, incredibly tasty vegetarian meal. Truly a delightful change from ordinary lentil stew or soup. Make sure you have a hunk of great bread to sop up the stew juices or you’ll end up using your fingers! Add a salad for a complete meal.
This is a healthy and delicious Thai inspired recipe. We made this last week and loved it! Recipe by Neva & Jim Brackett in their 7 Secrets Cookbook to lose weight, lower cholesterol, and reverse diabetes.
