Directions
- Put lentils & hot water into a pot.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat & simmer, covered for 30 minutes.
- Heat margarine in a skillet, add onion & cook for 2 minutes.
- Add carrot & pepper & cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add spices, paste, salt & pepper.
- Mix together well.
- Then stir in lentils & let cool.
- Mix in parsley.
- Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions & shape into rounds.
- Coat them in combined breadcrumbs & oats (oats may have to be blended to resemble fine breadcrumbs).
- Shallow fry in hot oil until golden brown on both sides.
- Drain well.
- For the yogurt sauce, combine all the ingredients & chill till ready to serve.
- I find that I do not need to roll the rissoles in egg, though the recipe calls for it.
