  1. this was just the thing on a cold winter night! the flavors blended together very well. you don't really taste curry as the obvious flavor, it all just melds very nicely. i also liked the fact that the stew wasn't meat-heavy, but balanced with the veggies.
     
  2. My pot is simmering right now. And early tastes are all promised from the reviews. Ended up adding an extra cup of water to the pot as the lentils quickly soaked up the broth. Next time, and there will definitely be one, I will add the zucchini half way through the cooking time.
     
  3. NurseDi, we tried this last night for the first time, and it was wonderful! It had slightly too much "kick" (from the curry) for our taste, but this was a real minor point. It's one of those meals where you feel like you've been treated to something special. Your insides are warmed, and your taastebuds are very happy indeed. It was great to have a filling and tasty recipe with no potato or rice. And finally, it's a "one pot wonder", which means hardly any dishes. Thanks for posting it!
     
  4. I cannot begin to describe how much I LOVE this soup. Very hearty and spicy flavors that blended together very well. I thought the curry and minced ginger were exceptional. Thanks Nurse Di for another outstanding recipe.
