I think I might have just impulse bought that

I love lentils of any kind - hugely under rated.

Curse you, you lentil porn-peddler! That's another book ordered. I've become a dahl addict since trying about five different varieties staying with a Dutch friend in France. Tomorrow I'll give your recipe a whirl.

They grow OK but pigeons and slugs love them and they really need a long hot summer to actually crop and ripen. Mum used to grow them occasionally as greens to add to saag (feels like years since I've mentioned saag )
