OT - bean, lentil, barley recipes
Hello folks,
We are trying to use more beans, lentils, barley and so on and fewer potatoes and bread in our diet. This is difficult as my son's favourite thing in the whole world is the bread machine and putting the ingredients in it nearly every day to make bread. Could you please share your favourite filling recipe for winter time? The leaves have started falling here, yes, in August. All the signs are for a hard winter - spiders are coming in already. I make a vegetarian dish every other day and a meaty dish every other day, so any and all recipes welcome! -- Jo in Scotland |

These might be of interest to you: http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recip...?recipe=740072 http://www.bread-maker.net/bread-mak...ntil-Bread.htm The first just requires to add the stuff to the bread machine, the second requires that the lentils be cooked first, but is otherwise all it requires is putting the stuff in the bread machine and turning it on as well. There are other bread recipes using barley or leintils, these are just the first ones that came up in the search. I cannot say for certain, but I think all these ingredients are certainly available in Scotland. Brian Christiansen |

Here's my favorite:
Red Lentil Soup (American measures) 2 onions 2 cloves garlic 4 tomatoes (or use a can of whole tomatoes) ½ tsp ground turmeric 1 tsp ground cumin 6 green cardamom pods ½ stick cinnamon 1 ¼ cups red lentils 3 ¾ cups water or chicken broth 1 can (14 oz/ 400 g) coconut milk 1 Tbsp lemon juice Salt and pepper Chop onion and garlic. Chop tomatoes coarsely. Put everything except the coconut milk, lemon juice and salt into a large pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes or until the lentils are soft. Remove the cardamom pods and cinnamon stick. You may puree the soup in honor of elegant guests; I usually serve as is. Just before serving, add the coconut milk and lemon juice. Heat very gently without boiling. Correct the seasoning. Serve garnished with cumin seeds or chopped fresh tomatoes. A very delicious vegetarian dish if you don't use chicken broth!

We were at a winery, wine tasting one day and they were sampling some of the
other goodies they make. One was a marinara sauce & they sampled it using very thinly cut carrots. It was almost like eating spaghetti, but better, cause no carbs!!
