Great, wholesome dish with TONS of nutrition. I only had green lentils, so I had to cook them longer. I also added 3 tbsp of tomato paste for color and some cayenne for heat. I also did half a bag of kale and half a bag of spinach for even MORE NUTRIENTS. MOOOAARRRRR. Ahem. But it's good. Make again sometime. Also if you make the basmati rice, do decrease the turmeric a bit for a rice cooker and mix it in because it WILL feel extra dry lol.
GODDAMN. This was so incredibly delicious, I would eat this for every day of my life if I could. Also, you might think the garlic powder + the minced garlic would be overkill, but it was NOT
This surprised me at how tasty it is. Fair warning though - if you use the full amounts of beans and lentils, you're going to want to make this 4 servings. Love the sweet and savory flavor!
Firstly, I made the mistake of letting the swordfish sit in the fridge for just a bit too long, and you can tell it was starting to go off. I also didn't like how chunky the "sauce" was, while also super liquidy, because the sauce didn't come together coherently. Thus, I put the whole thing in a pan with oregano, reduced it, and added garlic and lemon juice to make it into a sauce, and also smashed some of the cherry tomatoes to make it saucy. So basically I made a pasta puttanesca without the olives lol.
