Tonight's dinner experiment

[sylvar]

Currently sweating:

1 Tbsp. butter
1 Vidalia-grown onion, chopped
1/2 lb. frozen bell peppers (mostly yellow and red, I think)
Several enthusiastic dashes of sweet curry powder from Penzey's

On deck:

1 cup yellow lentils
3 cups water

I wish I had:

Golden raisins
$2.49 bottle of chardonnay from Trader Joe's (it's nearby, but I don't want to go out while this cooks)

So whaddaya call 'at, then?

Lentil pilaf, I guess.

Yeah, no leftovers this time. Maybe when I make a two-cups-of-lentils batch. And if I'm going to use my mortar and pestle, I'm gonna use it *before* the lentils are cooked. I wish I had Alton's kitchen and could just reach up off-camera and pull out an immersion blender, but around here I just overcook the leftovers and stir like mad.
