Lentils With Potato and Cabbage image

I created this simple but tastey side dish to accompany a curry. The use of precooked lentils reduces the cooking time. All good curries deserve a dish of lentils as a side dish to compliment the curry and add another flavour while bulking out the meal. This dish can be used as a soup if you add a stock cube or two and more water.
