  1. Very tasty and delicious. When making just be aware that the lentils are canned, not a dry quantity. I cooked approx 2/3 cup of brown lentils to stir through. The currants add the 'Wow' factor to the recipe. Little bursts of sweetness in your mouth. DH had 3 helpings and declared this a recipe I can certainly make again. Made for Aussie/Kiwi Swap Dec 2011.
