      I made this a few days back. I substituted the molasses with brown sugar. I did not know what apple cider is, so, I had to omit that. But, I used 1/2 + 1/3 cup of apple cider vinegar instead. I did not use fresh ginger at all(to be honest, I was too lazy to chop it that day). I cooked the lentils in about 6 cups of water + 3 cups of vegetable stock upto 4 pressure cooker whistles. The rest, I followed the recipe. Served it over hot Basmati rice and it was well loved by all at home. Thank U for sharing it. Its a great lentil recipe u got :)

      This is going to be one of my standard recipes!! Very flavorful. I didn't have molasses or apple cider, so added a little brown sugar and it still turned out great. Especially like the ginger.

      Mmmm! Wonderful flavor, I followed the recipe exactly, using brown lentils and served over brown rice. I actually held off and added the ginger and scallions when it was almost done, for a fresher flavor. It has a lovely sweet and tangy flavor (I don't know about sour, but tangy!) from the apple juice and cider. I also used chicken broth for the stock called for. I would like to see the cooking water/stock for the lentils included in the ingredients and not just in the directions. The scallions added lovely color and the ginger a burst of flavor. Delicious lentil recipe- will make again.

      This had lovely flavor, though I did not have any ginger to add. I used red lentils and they got very mushy. Not appetizing to look at, but had a wonderful taste over brown rice. I think next time I may try to cook them a little less so they don't get as mushy, and drain some of the water off the lentils before I put the sauce on as it was a little too soupy for over rice. But a good taste and a fast vegetarian meal!
