8 oz Green lentils
1 pt Hot water
2 oz Margarine
1 ea Onion, finely chopped
1 ea Carrot, finely chopped
1 ea Green bell pepper, diced
2 ea Garlic cloves, crushed
1/4 ts Cayenne
1/2 ts Coriander
1/2 ts Cumin
1/2 ts Curry powder
2 ts Tomato paste
Salt pepper, to taste
1 tb Parsley, chopped
—–COATING—–
Vegetable oil
2 oz Wholewheat flour
2 oz Breadcrumbs
2 oz Oats
—–YOGURT SAUCE—–
1/2 pt Plain soy yogurt
2 tb Parsley, chopped
1 tb Chives
1 ea Garlic clove, crushed
1/4 ts Cumin
Lemon juice, to taste
Salt pepper

RISSOLES: Combine lentils water, bring to a boil, reduce heat
simmer for 30 minutes, or until the lentils are tender (I think it
needs closer to an hour to get them really tender). Add more water
if necessary.
Heat the margarine, add the onion cook for a couple of minutes.
Add the carrot pepper cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add
the spices, tomato paste salt pepper. Mix together well stir
in the lentils. Add the parsley. Allow to cool till it is cool
enough to handle.
Divide the mixture into 12 portions shape into patties. Coat them
in flour, dip in some oil coat in the breadcrumbs oats (I omitted
this step). Shallow fry in hot oil until the patties are golden
brown on both sides. Drain well serve with the sauce.
SAUCE: Combine all ingredients together chill.
MARK’S NOTE: The vegetables do need to be finely diced, it may well be
easier to use a food processor. Also, if using the oats, I’d
recommend running them through the processor too so that they
resemble oat flour.
