A recipe for change
For quick and simple plant-based falafels, blitz the Persian-Style Quinoa & Lentils with some chickpeas, tahini, flour, lemon juice, garlic, oil, parsley and cumin in a food processor to a chunky mixture. Roll into bite sized balls then bake in a pre-heated oven for 15 minutes. Serve with hummus, salad, pitta bread and enjoy!

very filling
Great alternative to rice with my chicken breast. Its filling and flavoursome
Tasty and NO WHEATBERRIES!
Love Merchant Gourmet products, and this is one of the few grains ones that doesn't have wheatberries. Technically not "gluten free" but good enough for me! I take these handy little pouches camping for an easy meal (one pack per person) or quickly add a staple to a stew or sauce. Larder staple.
My new go to for dinners
Since discovering this brand, my weeknight dinners have been made 100% more delicious. Loving all the different recipes!
Really enjoyed
I like most of the lentil range from MG, not so much the others. Tried this Persian one tonight to accompany lamb steaks and thought it was really nice and a bit different. Agree that extra bits and bobs added would enhance, but not essential by any means. Will buy again.
mouldy
gross.... opened it up from the fridge with a sell by date of April 2024.... and its mouldy!!! dont buy it.... God knows how old these are!!!!
Cupboard staple
This is one of my favourite Merchant Gourmet products, very versatile, I often serve with an apricot lamb stew or vegetarian aubergine bake. Highly recommend.
