    Not sure of lentil dhal curry but I make a lentil bolognese and its delicious

    one large onion
    two cloves garlic
    150g dried red lentils
    mushrooms - as many as you want
    bouillon powder
    brown or white spaghetti
    cans tomatoes x 2
    cheese and basil (optional)
    Gently fry the onions and garlic in a drop of olive oil. Add the lentils and fry gently until pale.

    Add two cans of tomatoes. Pop in a teaspoon or two of bouillon.Stir well and simmer for half an hour.

    100g is 335g but that's enough for a whole recipe so wouldn't be that many for a portion
