    I absolutely loved this! I did have to replace the puy lentils with regular brown lentils but it all came together perfectly. I just upped the spice levels to my taste :) Mob slays again!

    I followed the recipe for 4 servings even though there were 3 of us and the portions were nowhere near big enough, would advise to top up the lentils. Was really tasty tho

    Hi Shaun, thanks so much for the feedback. We've changed the serving suggestion to 3 people so the portion sizes are a bit bigger. Glad it was tasty!

    Amazing! Will definitely make again. I did the halloumi in the air fryer and worked well. I reckon next time I will use two onions.

    Very tasty! Will make again. Did think the whole 4p recipe would not enough for 2 adults and 3 kids (7,10,13) so added homemade naan from another mob recipe. Next time I would also add 1,5x the lentils and double the amount of pickled onion.

    Really easy and delicious recipe, I’ve done it with paneer instead in the air fryer which is also worth a try! I like to add spinach and serve it with some tenderstem broccoli and naan.

    This was so delicious! The marinade on halloumi is so good. I added in fresh chilli too and had only had brown lentils to hand and still worked out. Perfect Winter comfort bowl.

    So, so good! I did bump up the spice quantities in the dhall for extra flavour and a pinch of salt in the yogurt. Delicious.

    We loved this. Had to put some feta as well as halloumi in but it still worked out well. Lots of good protein.

    All the elements come together to make this a great meal. I did up the spices as first time of making it was a bit bland also added some ginger.

    When you throw it together at the end, every aspect adds a bit of complexity to the dish. I keep coming back to this one again and again as it's absolutely delicious. It's also great to make in bulk to feed a lot of vegetarians and vegans (without the halloumi/yoghurt).

    Quick, easy and tasty. But you might need an extra onion than is listed or I shouldn’t have pickled the whole red onion to start!

    This is one of those great recipes where the end result tastes like you’ve put so much more time and effort in than you actually did. A mid week staple!
