Notes
What variations are there for a lentil sandwich with egg
- A few green leaves would be nice, spinach from the garden perhaps, or a bit of lettuce, or maybe a few herb leaves, basil or parsley
- You could use any dried fruit to add that note of sweetness; sultanas, currants, diced apricots, chopped dates etc
- You could use the mix in a pitta or wrap, or on top of a jkt potato, or with some crudite (carrot batons and celery perhaps)
