The first time I made the simple yellow lentils from my Indian Slow Cooker book, I didn’t find the process so simple.
That’s probably because I used the wrong type of lentil. This time I used a moong dal, that broke down within the five-hour time period as expected.
I’m hearing some good feedback on the recipe. And I’ve enjoyed all four of the servings I’ve had. This was a great dish to help me recover from this persistent virus…lots of protein and a healthy dose of medicinal garlic and spice to clear my sinuses.
Still, I’m going to start making half recipes going forward unless I’m planning for company. The full 5-quart crock pot versions are too much for us, even when I share with neighbors and coworkers.
