You didn’t need to convince me, I use them regularly

>>17965608
Is this a fight going on now? I think you can just sell them as cheap and good tasting, just like beans.

But anon, they taste like my abuela's ass..

You convinced me
I will make lentil soup with celery carrot onion and that leaf that does nothing

How old were you when she first asked you to rim her?

>VERSATILE
got any recipes, OP?
I typically cook them in addition to pork sausage to add more volume. i can't imagine just cooking lentils by themselves without any meat. aside from perhaps the Indian dishes where they cook them down to mush

>GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Animal farming, aside from being horribly unethical, is a real drain on the available natural resources. Even AOC wants to tax cow and Latinx braps to reduce methane emissions.

Man, what is up with moderation tonight? Just delete the fucking posts; nothing of value is lost.

>>17965807
there is an argentinean/uruguayan dish, guiso de lentejas that is pretty good. you can google recipes for that.

I also make a different variant thats more of a sloppa version of that:

rice, lentils, ground beef (i usually make this and then kind of dice it), tomato sauce, seasoning.

Cook rice and lentils, then cook ground beef in pan.
Add tomato sauce as you're cooking, and toss in salt, pepper, oregano, onion powder and garlic powder (can sub these for actual onions and garlic if you choose but im lazy).
then add rice and lentils and stir fry together, and add more seasoning. some people add a pinch of sugar as well to cut the acidity, but i don't personally. quick, easy to make, good tasting sloppa.

just made this for the first time
its fucking great, never had any indian styled dish before

>>17965696
Make sure you also start with 5 slices of bacon and simmer the onion, leek, and carrot in all the bacon fat. That's how you make Swabian Lentils.

>>17965608
you can type soy you fucking moron.

I hate lentils. Split peas master race.

>>17966448
try daal or sambar

So, Indian food had tons of different varieties of lentils. Are there any major differences between the various types or is it just how processed it is (eg. removing the outer shell of the lentil/how polished it is)?

>>17965608
you didn't make that faggot

>>17966616
No they all boil down into mush of varying color.

>guiso de lentejas
all the recipes contain meat.
i asked for meatless lentil recipes
>>17966322
(YOU) are nothing of value

i cooked lentils last night
mirepoix + leek in butter and olive oil
last week's chicken stock
two drained and rinsed cans of lentils (i know, i was tired on a friday night and hadn't planned anything)
dried thyme and marjoram
black pepper
olive oil fried eggs
simple as

>>17965608
I rather eat beans

>>17966727
was this just one serving?
if i'm gonna go through the trouble of making mirepoix, i usually want something i can store and eat later too
>marjoram
what does it taste like?

>>17965608
Yeah, they're fine but I won't eat them exclusively. I am confused as to what you were trying to acomplish here.

I'm not Indian, so no thanks. I'll take beans please

>hear lentils are good for you
>make a delicious chicken and lentil stew
>eat it for a couple of days
>get constipated for a week, nothing works, have to go to hospital to get unclogged
Safe to say I don't eat lentils anymore.

Post the DIAAS score faggot.

>>17966786
you've gotta space out your fiber intake if you plan on eating a lot of it, or yes you will get constipated.
too little fiber = constipation
too much fiber = constipation

>>17966739
no it made quite a few
marjoram tastes like marjoram, i don't know what to say off the top of my head other than "dried herb". normally i would just use fresh parsley but my parsley has been struggling with the weather lately
i think most french/german/italian ways of cooking "just lentils" are pretty similar to this

I don't care it they are versatile. Just lentejas con chorizo every week until I die.

>>17965608
No. Im gonna shoot and eat a rabbit

>>17968218

>>17965617
You use them for cram I bet

i've made lentil tofu a couple times
its pretty good and super simple

>>17966489
Based Southern German Linsen und Spätzle Chad.
I often fry some Speck crispy before I eat it and add it to the lentils.
Also do you know if Alb Leisa are worth their money?
