Joan Nova - Thanks! Jule - Wow, I am so glad you tried out the recipe. The feedback is wonderful, so thank you! I will adjust the cumin amount in the recipe (at first I thought it was slightly bland, so I kicked it up a notch). Garlic would be a great idea, too!

I made these last night and they were really easy and delicious. But I think 2 tbsp cumin is way too much! I only put 1 tbsp and it was still a little too much for me (and I like cumin!). Any thoughts on using garlic in this? I think I'll try that next time. Great recipe! I made these last night and they were really easy and delicious. But I think 2 tbsp cumin is way too much!

I have a Mediterranian Food Market available in our city. I was so intrigued by your recipe that I went out to purchase the lentils. I do hope my turn out to look as delicious as your photo.
