I love cooking lentils, lots of diced garlic, onion, peppers and potatoes and if you can add ham and chorizo then even better. Main thing is to soak the lentils for 24 hours before cooking them. by sim

cheese and lentil loaf. Can eat it hot or cold and this recipe has saved me loads of times. It's so yummy I always get asked for the recipe - even from non-vegetarians!nRinse 6 oz lentils really well and boil for 10 - 15 minutes in 12 fl oz water in a tightly covered pan.nYou should get a stiff puree - add more water if necessary.nRemove pan from heat and stir in 4 oz grated cheddar cheese, a finely chopped onion, 1tbsp chopped parsley, 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper and a little lemon juice. Season.nBeat and egg in a separate bowl and stir in 3 tablespoons single cream. (I sometimes add an extra egg as it helps bind it a bit better) Pour this over the lentil mix.nPress mixture into a greased 1lb loaf til and bake for 45 - 50 mins until the top is golden brown and mixture is firm to touch. Leave to stand for 10 minutes before turning out.nnWe've had this for Sunday lunch when veggie guests have come round. Any leftovers have been cheerfully eaten cold in packed lunches the next day!nHope that helps! by Goosey

It is delicious! Peal and finely dice one onion and 2 carrots and crush 1 garlic clove. If you're not mushroom phobic like me wash and chop 100g mushrooms. Sautee gently until softened. Add 150g (no soak) lentils and a 400g tin of tomatoes. Add 350ml water and crumble in a veggie stock cube. Cook gently for 20 mins ish (until the lentils are soft) and season to taste. Peal and cube 2 large potatoes and 1 swede and boil until soft. Drain and mash. Place lentil mix in an ovenproof dish and top with swede/potato mash. I covered mine in grated cheese too. Cook in the oven untill golden brown and bubbling gently around the edges. by cakeshaped

omelette ;-) But do not add butter or milk to make it scrummy! by bad_housewife

Why onion free? Just wondering as I use lots of onion powder or onion salt as I LOATHE onion texture but I think you need the flavour in some dishes. I make everything without onion- just leave it out. And no-one has ever said my spag bol is lacking anything!! by julia1warner

We both love onions and garlic and always cook with them but we're trying to be free of the allium family in the hope of resolving IBS symptoms by soosy

:)))) try Spanish onion-free omelette with a country touch: potato, red pepper and eggs. Making it thick enough (5-6cm) you could open it sideways and fill it with ham and cheese, yum! Shame not adding any onion though...It would last you for a good 3 days in the fridge by Dolcemomo
