We truly enjoyed this dish. We used oranges and clementines which made this refreshing but filling . The flavours really works well and the crunch of the peanuts add a variety of textures! I made the potatoes and the lentils ahead and did the last bit of prep in no time. Easy for me a perfect after work meal! We will definitely make it again… Meatless Monday Keeper!!

dish tasted fine but was more work than I think it was worth it.

Delicious!!! I have been preparing this recipe since you first posted it. It is what’s for dinner this evening. I’m cooking the sweet potatoes and lentils this morning and going on a nice long hike. When I’m ready to assemble for dinner it will take only 15 minutes.

This recipe was definitely out of my comfort zone. The mix is rather different, however I did enjoy it. I followed another reviewer’s advise and added the lemon juice after taking it off the heat. The peanuts were probably the best part. I probably wouldn’t make it again, but still worth trying.

This was pretty good, and not too complicated. I made it for lunch on a day when I didn't have a lot of work. I enjoyed it, my boyfriend said it was "like a Chopped basket" (he's not wrong) but he still ate the whole thing.

Trying to do more vegetarian and though this recipe seemed like an unusual combination of ingredients was intrested given the high rating and positive reviews. Quite glad I tried it. Flavors came together nicely and was pretty quick & easy to make - made for a real satisfying & filling meal (that's saying a lot, coming from a meat-loving eater!). Next time will probably up the red pepper flakes otherwise will keep the recipe as-is.

Question: I detest sweet potatoes. Is there a good regular potato to substitute? Waxy or floury?

Just made this for dinner for my family. I used a tin of canned lentils and flavoured them with lemon, 2 tsp coriander powder, 1 tsp paprika, 1tbsp lemon juice and a garlic clove. V nice and good if you've got lots of cans lying around. Cooked sweet potatoes for 45 mins and they were perfect. I poked holes in them before baking which helped.Overall yummy and easy recipe. Will definitely do it again.!

I made this the other night and thought it was very good. Nearly a pantry recipe in our house. I had French green lentils so that's what I used. I also had some fresh Mandarin oranges. The citrus lightens up what could be a pretty heavy dish. I'm not a fan of feta, but bought some anyway. Next time I think I will try Cotija. Unlike some reviewers, I thought the mixture of textures and flavors were interesting together.

Delicious! Very different from what we normally have, but very tasty. The toasted nuts were truly delicious, and since I poured the lemon juice in right after I took the pan off the heat, it boiled and emulsified perfectly. Followed the recipe exactly—except my sweet potatoes were on the larger side, so cooked them a bit longer.

My husband and I really enjoyed this dish. We liked all the different flavors and textures. We will definitely make this again. It's a little labor intensive but most really good dishes are in my opinion. I followed one reviewer's idea to add the lemon juice to the oil when cooking the peanuts. I also added green onions and cilantro to the dressing. I cut the sweet potatoes in half so they would cook faster. Thanks for a great recipe!

absolutely loved this recipe! I thought the flavor combos were so clever and it came together so easily as you can prep all the toppings while the sweet potatoes roast & lentils simmer away. I couldn't find black lentils so used French green ones and they came out great. I took the reviewer's advice who suggested adding the fried peanuts and lemon to a jar and shaking it for improved emulsification instead of merely stirring and that worked beautifully (also makes for easy storage if you have leftover). I substituted cilantro for chopped green onion and parsley and found that worked just fine. My favorite part of this recipe was the addition of the peanut lemon dressing -- I so enjoyed the crunch of the roasted peanuts (also disagree with a few reviewers and feel strongly that the process of browning them on the stove top makes all the difference in bringing out the peanut flavor) on top of the roasted sweet potato -- the textures just all worked together so nicely. Great job, BA! Will be adding this to my regular weeknight dinner rotation.

I loved this recipe! The black lentils were worth seeking out. I used tangelos and navel oranges and the flavors melted perfectly. I added avocado slices and toasted some seeds (coriander, cumin, and mustard) to throw on top with the peanuts. So good!
