Savoury Red Lentil & Oat Porridge

This tastes amazing! I forgot the peas, but I’ll add them next time

Soo nice! But its a lot to fit in in my stomach 😵‍💫
I love trying out more breakfasts with veggies and leavy greens!

Okay, so I have tried everything to make my 1 year old eat vegetables/ dinner for almost 6 months now and he just blows raspberries or throws it on the ground until I gave him this dish. He kept asking for more (I think I almost cried haha)😱 I made it with half of the bouillon cubes to make it a bit less salty, and without the kale because I didn’t have any - instead I used extra carrots, but still a 10/10!!

Awe we're smiling from ear to ear reading this, Lotte! Its so special when the little ones enjoy a recipe too 🥰

Omg i love oats now! This is amzing and one of my favourite breakfast recipes!!! Love it!

I tried this one pot meal and liked it. I substituted kale with spinach and had mango pickle as a side..rest I followed the instructions. Maybe next time, I will have something crunchy like air fried beetroot chips on the side...

Thanks for sharing your experience with the savoury porridge, Prachi!

I find this dish hearty (oats) and more tasty when served cold. The only ingredient not used was asafoetida, cause I didn’t have any. I didn’t have a chance to learn more about the ingredient, before making this dish, so I am not sure how it would change the taste of it overall. Since I didn’t have any red lentils, I used green lentils instead. Also, lemon wedges, cilantro and avocado for the garnish. We served it for lunch, and I will definitely make it again. We made 4 servings and it was all gone before the end of the day. Thank you for the inspiration! ❤️😉

Thank you for your feedback, Livija! Using green lentils and adding lemon, cilantro, and avocado sound like great substitutions. Asafoetida adds a unique flavour, but it’s wonderful to hear the dish was a hit even without it 😃

Not my favorite, but husband did enjoy it.

Quick and yummy recipe! Will make again. Didn't have asafoetida on hand so I added about 2 teaspoons of curry powder and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and salt until I got that zing and it came out sooo good. Will try it with asafoetida next time I make it.
Thank you sooo much! I love your recipes. ❤️❤️

Hi Patri, so glad that the recipe was enjoyed - thanks for the substitution tips as well. We're excited to enjoy more delicious recipes together 🤗

so delicious and easy to make! subbed carrots and kale for frozen veggies and frozen spinach, and adjusted the spices to include what we had in our pantry (coriander, paprika, chili flakes, turmeric, garlic powder, and salt). had with a side of cucumber, it was great!

I found this recipe quite bland for my taste. It could be that I can’t find asofaetida where I live so I sub with onion powder as suggested in other recipes. If someone else feels the same about this recipe I’d suggest trying the Vegetable Upma. However, this is a very feeling and nourishing dish yo start my day. Thanks!

Thanks for your feedback, Eli! Asofaetida indeed has a unique flavour that's hard to replace. We're glad you found it nourishing though, and it's great to hear you're suggesting the Vegetable Upma as an alternative. Happy cooking 🤗

This was a pleasant surprise. I was worried about the asafoetida as I was cooking it, but it is the perfect amount and the lemon cut through it to brighten. Yum!! I would make this again. I did need more Watertown the recioe stayed when I reduced to 2 servings. I had vege broth on hand on the fridge to add to it. About another cup. I cooked in a enameled Dutch oven uncovered.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your experience with the porridge, Bobbie! 🥰

Tasty! 🥰 but the portion is just huge

I've been looking into white pots and Pans on PUL website but I can't find it on my local Amazon. Could you please help guide me towards another pot and Pan set? :) I also want to ask where you get your plates from

Hey Joanna, the white pan with wooden handles we use are from a company called Ambition. We also like the Le Creuset pans but they're a little pricier.

As for plates, a good number of our kitchen pottery is from thrift stores - always very unique finds there! Others we've purchased from local Dutch shops, such as Dille & Kamille, and we've also purchased some rustic ceramics from NomLiving. We hope this helps for now ✨

Thankyou so much ☺️
I'll be sure to check out Ambition and Le Creuset. So far, I only have the Le Cruset Dutch oven.
As for the Plates, I'll be sure to dig around my local thrift stores and look into those websites and see if they ship to Australia :)

I love savory breakfasts, and this one has everything I need. Veggie, greens and carbs. Absolutely recommend this especially if you add some nicely fried vegan sausage. Amazing!
