Wow! I'm always on the hunt for easy tasty curry lunches to take to work. This fits the bill! I pre cooked my lentils last night and kept them in the fridge. Today I did TWO onions (they were kind of small) and used green curry paste (that is all I had) and the rest of the recipe I followed to a T. Well, I did not have canned puree tomatoes, just regular diced tomatoes. I prepared this all in a 3" deep electric skillet. Then added the cold lentils to reheat at the end. I was going to add cilantro too, but forgot it while shopping. Excellent dish - I will try butter at the end as someone suggested. So good!!!

I had to use almond milk as we had no regular milk in the house. I also felt 2 T of sugar was a lot. Almost tasted like cupcake batter! I'd cut the sugar down to 1/2 or 1 T next time. They were definitely fluffy!
We loved it and did not miss the meat. I will be making this again as it's filling, spicy and makes a lot! The flavor seemed to turn out better than most curries I make myself (which usually have chicken). I did not have canned or frozen peas; so I used a bag of frozen cut spinach and it had a saag kind of feel.
AWESOME FOR LARGE CROWDS! I made this recipe for 40 servings (so 5x the original recipe). Instead of fresh green peppers, onions, carrots, celery - I used prechopped/frozen bags of green peppers and mirepoix mix (nine 10oz. bags total). This was a good idea! I did use fresh mushrooms. I sauteed the veggies in a large electric skillet (in batches) with a generous amount olive oil and garlic. I used three 6-quart crockpots to divvy the sauteed veggies and canned tomatoes/beans/wine. The spices were mixed all together in a glass pint jar. I divvyed the mixed spices between the three crockpots. Cooked over night and it turned out great! It was a huge hit (made for contestants at a ski race) and many came back for 2nds and 3rds!
Wow, so easy and tasty! I made a quick salad with romaine, strawberries and toasted pecans (cleaning out the fridge) and this vinaigrette was perfect. Fast and easy. I mix it in a little Mason jar and shake it up.
