Colombian Lentils image

This is a great starter. You can make it with a bit more water and you get somewhat of a soup, or let it cook and eat it with a plate of rice.

I followed the recipe exactly and the lentils turned out mushy. I think I'll cook them for less time next time.

Not bad, but not amazing. The lentils were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

This recipe is way too complicated. I ended up giving up and ordering takeout.

This is a great recipe for busy weeknights. It's quick and easy to make, and the lentils are always delicious. I often add some chopped vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and onions, to the pot for extra flavor.
