My mom is a notorious lentil hater but I've cooked several of the meal plan lentil recipes for her and literally just last night she said "I've always hated lentils because I thought they tasted like dirt but lately they've tasted good." You converted her! I'll have to try some of these next!

@RainbowPlantLife 2 месяца назад

This is so lovely to hear! I love when you can convince someone that they don't actually hate a certain ingredient...they just haven't find the right method or recipe. So happy you and your mom have been enjoying the lentil recipes in the meal plan!!

@beverlyheinritz5294 2 месяца назад

I agree with mom. I always thought lentils taste like dirt. I have obviously been eating lentils cooked by restaurants that don’t know how to make them. The first recipe I found that I liked was posted on RU-vid by someone who said she and her husband did not like lentils but loved this soup. That was the recipe for me. All of these recipes look delicious with layers of flavor added. I may go first with the bolognese.

@lisetteem588 Месяц назад

that's great. lentils are so healthy. I made some little lentil balls that tasted like greek me*tballs. im veg so.. it's borderline for me..

@kumaridesilva3992 29 дней назад

I had the same experience, when my ex-husband made lentils they tasted literally like dirt, but not the way I make them now! Thank you Rainbow Plant Life

The lentil bolognese is OUTRAGEOUS. I've made it at least 30 times from your cookbook. The wine and whole tube of tomato paste technique is next level.

This is the best vegetarian/vegan bolognese I have ever cooked. I make a huge batch & freeze it into containers that hold 2 portions each, so they're ready for weeknight dinners. This, with a rocket (arugula) & parmesan salad, is fantstic.

@jababygirl03 2 месяца назад

Ma’am we need to talk come here …………… I just made the bolognese with the wine and really cook in layers as you described in your recipe. Let me tell you, I’m so proud of myself and this sauce taste so good. Idk if because of the caramelizing of the onion, paste and wine but it was just perfect amount of sweet. Now I’m still cooking currently, I like how thick your was so I’m going to keep cooking but thank you. Thank you for sharing and I will be drilling around to help with having some good meal prep

@RainbowPlantLife 2 месяца назад

You always remind me that I need to get off my duff and make more of an effort to vary my plant-based diet. I have no excuses either, as I live in Toronto, and have access to a wide range of ingredients. Curry leaves (which I love) are available at the Sri Lankan grocer near me, as is every type of spice. I really recommend the porcini powder you suggested -- it adds so much flavour. I grind my own from the large bag of dried porcini I buy from an Italian-food shop here in Toronto. I love all the dishes you prepare!

@lauriefuda Месяц назад

I was wondering whether or not you could grind up dried porcinis to make a powder? I've never seen the powder anywhere although I know I could find it online or possibly at the Indian grocery store that I found the curry leaves in, but the problem is they often sell in bulk, or in really big bags and it's just me and my husband. I like buying dried morel mushrooms as well-the stock they make is amazing! Then we use the reconstituted mushrooms and put them in the food processor with some fresh mushrooms and it's really good. Thanks for your tips.

Nisha, you can cook the dal in the instant pot for 8 mins rather than stove cooking for 30 mins. Plus you dont need to stir or baby sit it. More time and effort efficient!

@dawnkeckley7502 2 месяца назад

Tolerance of heat/spice can be hereditary, but it’s simply a trait that depends on the number of heat receptors in your mouth. Spicy foods contain a chemical called capsaicin, which activates a receptor found in your mouth and on your tongue called a TRPV1 receptor. There is some variation in the sensitivity of these receptors, and even the amount of them, from person to person. Birds lack these completely.

@Janet.D.C. 27 дней назад

Spice / heat sets my digestive system on fire 🔥 . Makes me feel awful, so I avoid too much heat. I’m sure she would say I have “baby mouth”. (That sounds so condescending.) Love her recipes (toned down) and her personality, though. ❤

@neonice 26 дней назад

@@Janet.D.C.It is condescending. For some reason people like to boast about eating spicy foods as if it makes them some sort of superior person. I don't have a problem with spice either but I never understood why people act so edgy over it.

The lentil ragù looks delicious. Little tip: if you want it to taste more authentic, use rosemary and/or bay and add celery/carrots to the onion. Some soy sauce, marmite or a couple pf dry porcini mushrooms will add meatiness and umami. This is how I make my vegan ragù as an Italian, born and raised. Oregano and thyme are a very American addition.

Fortunately back at my house I finally warmed up both foods and said oh wow! I didn't put the chilies even though I have lots leftover from making guajillo sauce lol and wonder if it would be better if I had added but oh well this will be my lunch or dinner rest of week!

The bolognese tasted exactly like a high end italian restaurant version, the snack mix has been added to my every day salad lunch and the dal palak. And let's talk about the Dal palak! I didn't make your dal because I love the dhal recipe that I use (and I already had it in the freezer). But normally I serve the dhal over rice. So your recipe has the dhal has the base with the palak on top then the lentil snack crunch. It is AMAZING! Truly everything you describe here! Thank you, thank you!!
