Hi Kelly,

Since we have pressure cookers, we tend to use them frequently…a big time saving gadget! Lentils are one of the few beans that do not require soaking. They can take anywhere from 30-60 minutes on the stove, depending on how soft you like them. If cooking lentils on the stove, you may want to add salt after they have cooked – the cooking time is faster that way.

I don’t have a pressure cooker… how long should I cook the lentils if I’m boiling them in a pot?

Hi Hetal and Anuja,
I just finished making this right now and it is AWESOME!!! It took me almost no time at all! God bless lentils..lol. I just increased the spices a bit as I like spicy lentils. Your recipes are so easy to follow. Thank you for responding so quickly.
