Lentils are highly fibrous and swell during the steaming process. It is advisable to add a little bit more water than you would with beans otherwise it will end up too hard when it cools.
I made this lentil moi moi today,my family loved it greatly and to think that it was made from an abandoned lentil wowed everyone. I love zeelicious kitchen.
Guess what! I tried this about a week ago. Getting ready to make it a second time. It was a hit! I loved it and so did my hubby. Thank you so much Winnie!
God bless you, I am in Oman and sometimes it's hard to get the perfect moimoi with beans but we have a lot of lentils we call it dal. I am going to definitely try this😘
I feel like you have uploaded this video before maybe I'm mistaken but I'm having a feeling of deja vu lol I even bought this lentils last week to make the recipe after watching the video
@@DerahAchieves think you’ll typically get it where they sell grains, rice, beans in the supermarket . You might get it in the local market if you ask and maybe show them the pictures.
This is so nice I can't wait to try it. Your channel always gives me joy I wish I could see you to give u a big hug and tell you thanks for the amazing recipe.
Hello Winnie. Thanks for this recipe. A real life-saver! I made this a couple of days ago and though delicious, was a bit hard compared to moi-moi made with beans; though I felt i added enough water. Any suggestions on how I can avoid this next time. Thanks so much
I don’t know if y’all would agree with me but lentils moimoi is waayyyyy better than beans own! My household has switched! Guests don’t even know it’s not beans 😂
@@afolabiolamide5836 if you're staying in Nigeria I really can't say because I have never seen it in Nigeria before but you can try and check some supermarkets.

Amen and amen. No peeling for me. I tried it and I got so frustrated so I blended everything in one. Thank you so much. You made my day.
Tried it today…it tastes slightly different from moi-moi made with beans. Overall, I prefer the taste of the good old moi-moi with beans
Wow! Reminds me of Mexican tamales! I love the huge use of lentils in African cuisine 😻😻
