Apparently none of them have heard of pink lentils. Beautiful, tiny, quick cooking, delicious pink lentils. Someone actually asked if they come in a can. I didn't even know lentils could come in a can, let alone that people would eat them from a can.*
Oh look, I did learn something new today!
Anyway, pink lentils are the bomb and tonight I busted out my over note tabbed copy of Veganomicon and made the Red Lentil-Cauliflower Curry. Here is the proof:
You'll find many, if not all of the Veganomicon recipes with some simple googling, so I'm not going to post it here (plus, it's a really great cookbook so you should just go ahead and own it). This would be a great recipe for lentil newbies since you don't have to worry about getting that perfect liquid-to-lentil ratio. At a certain point you just throw them in and let everything hang out. And if they get mushy it means you're doing it right.
* This post kind of makes me sound like an asshole. Don't read me wrong, I genuinely like many of my coworkers, I just dislike having to describe my lunch to them each day. I don't really need to know what they're eating and I expect the same from them.
