  • Wow!  Amazing!  I've always

    Submitted by Luci Van den Berg on 27. July 2013 - 06:30.

    Wow!  Amazing!  I've always loved lentils but this was so full of flavour, I'll make it again for sure.  Only thing I would do different is double the lentil mixture as there seemed to be more potatoes than lentils.  This should give it some more height too.

    Big Smile  This is delicious, I messed uo the recipe, didn't set aside the carrot and kept putting everything in on top but it doesn't seem to have altered the great taste, also had no cauliflower. Next time I will use more lentils I think, but thanks for the recipe it was a winner!

    Submitted by Bronze Sunflower on 9. January 2013 - 23:48.

    Really delicious, I added sweet potato and left out cauliflower and cheese as I didn't have any on hand.

    My 3 and 5 year old both enjoyed I too.

    Thanks for the recipe will definitely make again.

  • We are not vegetarian but

    Submitted by Schnetts01 on 18. November 2012 - 16:14.

    We are not vegetarian but this recipe is so delicious. Would definitely make it again. Even my kids ate it & were asking for seconds. Looked just like a meat pie when cooked. Only thing I did was to soak the lentils overnight before use just to make sure they were super soft when cooked. It also freezes really well. tmrc_emoticons.)

  • Made this for tea tonight and

    Submitted by sinstress on 7. November 2012 - 19:41.

    Made this for tea tonight and we all loved it. As I'm vegan we didn't add the ricotta to the potato & cauliflower mix and instead used some almond milk. I also added some frozen peas & corn and broccoli to the lentil mix and I also didn't have to drain off any liquid. I also didn't add cheese to the top when cooking in the oven, but was still delicious. Will definitely be making again tmrc_emoticons.)

  • Very tasty and turned out

    Submitted by Mum the chef on 3. November 2012 - 14:15.

    Very tasty and turned out delicious!

    My variation (as that was what i had in the pantry) was that I added sweet potato to the plain potato mixture and I didn't have ricotta so I just used 50ml of cream as a substitute. 

    I also added a few more vegies to the lentil mixture (cabbage and zucchini) and that soaked up the excess liquid so there was no need to drain off. 

    All in all turned out very nice! We are not vego's but this is a great way to have a tasty meat free meal that all the family loved  tmrc_emoticons.)
