How can I dispose of a pan of dahl?

Don't you recycle food waste in your neck of the woods?

I too am fond of dal, whether red lentils or any of the other kinds... simple and quick to make. I cheat to the extent of adding a veg stock cube to the lentils as they are originally cooked, then it's tempered cumin seeds, onion, chopped green chilli and garlic, then salt and turmeric and finally the lentils.

By now it's probably made it's own way to wherever unwanted Dahl goes!

The dahl that unsettled my innards last week is now on the compost heap. Don't know what the worms there will make of it though.

Exactly, Ana!

After all, that's where most of it would have ended up anyway!

You haven't still got it, have you jingl? Not even I would eat it after all this time!

It'll have been festering a bit by now, but the loo might be the best bet (especially now)!

There you are! 3 months too late, but hey....!

Put it down the toilet.

Mmmmm I love dhal just spice it up a bit jingle I use lentils in home made soups, curry's, casseroles etc.

you can get ready peeled red onions from Ocado. They are not ready sliced though.

Perhaps it was just general advice as to personal hygiene? Waitrose takes its responsibility to its customers very seriously!

I make it sometimes and all I use is oil onions, red lentils and stock. Sometimes cumin and coriander.
If it had be solid I would say cut it in slices and fry it - that's what my Mum used to do with pease pudding.

Several nice meaty broths then, jings. You could freeze (could have frozen) it in portions.

And then tossed them out when you defrosted the freezer and found you hadn't used them up

Those green 'Puy' Lentils are delicious.
Tesco do them in tins or you can buy dried.
We generally use tinned.
Nice in soups and broths even or just as a side
Mrs Retiredguy always washes red lentils.

Bags there was a huge amount of the stuff.

Mwah!

I'm sorry Cari darling, but these are Waitrose Love Life ones and it says on the bag, "wash thoroughly".

Never mind. All is well.

Chuck your failed dahl into a nice meaty broth, jings.

I use lentils a lot, (like dj I'm vegetarian) and I always have a few tins of them in the cupboard too - I really like them. I'd also endorse using the garlic and ginger pastes, because it it easier but also because I don't often cook the same quantities as I did when everyone lived at home. (Sighs of relief)

The man who lived next door to us and made us chickpea curries and dhals was a Ugandan Asian who was expelled by Idi Amin, merlot, so he probably would have wanted the tapioca when he was a child.

Ana and *Lona's posts remind me of receiving a clip round the ear from my grandmother for being cheeky. I was staring at a bowl of tapioca pudding which I absolutely hated while she lectured about the starving children in Africa.

She was not impressed when I said, 'But what makes you think they'd want to eat this?'

Big mistake.
