Lentil Burgers (page 199) was a recipe that I was expecting to be fairly easy but some issues came up during cooking. First of all, the recipe said one cup of lentils... which kind? I guessed the common brown type. Then the next issue for me was that they were too wet to form patties, maybe I needed to cook them longer or on a higher heat... but instead, I added a bit of flour to dry them out. I fried a few in the skillet and baked the rest. Miriam gives you a choice and I wanted to see what the difference would be. I put a burger in a pita pocket and added plenty of Avocado Mayonnaise (page 504) which is outstanding. The whole thing came out very nicely even though I had to ad lib a bit.
