    Thanks for the tips I've adjusted the recipe to note that the lentil water needs to be tipped out and added a little extra time for the mixing.

    Yummo! These were so nice and the family loved them. I was unsure if I should tip the water out after cooking the lentils. I tipped it out and I'm glad I did. Maybe the previous comment about them being too runny was because of the water was left in.

  • Great way to use up pumpkin.

    Great way to use up pumpkin. Ran out of cashews so I used almonds instead. Needed to mix all ingredients for much longer than 10 sec.They held together quite well after frying them up. I really enjooyed them with sweet chilli sauce and plain yohghurt! Yum.

    Hi Kezbaby86 I use dried lentils but you could use canned - probably don't need to cook them if they are soft already

    Fantastic taste!   I didn't have any cashews but that didn't matter. Next time a double batch and I'll freeze some for snacks.
