    Hi
    Just cooked this curry(my first ever from scratch!) , its lovely! Very filling too! Made slight adjustment as i only like a mild curry so just used1 tbsp of med curry powder, may increase it a little next time! Also my first useof green lentils as usually only have split red lentils. Thanks for the recipe and great site! Ali on the isle of wight x

    This sounds amazing! Have you tried it in a slow cooker? Just wondering what, if any, adjustments need to be made, how long to cook, etc.

    I haven’t tried it in a slow cooker, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work, perhaps may need to adjust liquid.

    Omg! Made this coconut green lentil curry and can’t believe how tasty it i. My family loved it and is going to be a regular meal in our house as it is so versatile .

    I had the left overs for my lunch the second day and it was just as good if not better.

    Thank you so much for the brilliant recipes; keep them coming.

    Just one question; can it be batch made and frozen?

    So glad you enjoyed it. This recipe is a perfect one for freezing.
