Your videos are plant based comfort food. This also sounds great with sweet potatoes too!

When you don’t like raisins you can ALWAYS use dried cranberries. WAY BETTER 😉😁

How did you make the lentils ? Like just boiled them ?

[elainal.]

I would add roasted cauliflour so hard to this dish

[annadkart]

Instead of boiling, roast the carrots and halfed Brussel sprouts and follow the recipe as directed. Waaaay better flavor!
