This lentil dish was okay. The lentils were a little undercooked, even though I followed the recipe exactly. The taste was also a bit too tangy for my taste. I don't think I'll be making this again.

Great recipe for a weeknight meal. It was quick to make and the lentils were flavorful. I did add a little extra salt and cumin to taste. My family all enjoyed it.

Loved this recipe! I've been looking for a quick and easy lentil dish, and this one fit the bill. The lentils had a great texture and the combination of cumin, turmeric and coriander gave it a warm and comforting taste. Will definitely make this agai

This lentil dish was a hit with my family! The recipe was easy to follow and the ingredients were easy to find. The cooking time of 15 minutes was perfect and the lentils were perfectly flavorful. I will definitely be making this again very soon.
