Cheesy lentil bake

I had a lentil bake a while back in The Happy Pear and thought it was so tasty so I tried to make my own. I made this weeks ago so I can't remember exactly how I made it.
I boiled some red lentils ( don't ask me how much.. just enough to cover the dish I was cooking it in.
Added various curry powders and spices to it.
Boiled until all the water had gone.
Mixed in some grated cheese and a beaten egg.
Topped with breadcrumbs and grated cheese and baked until brown on top!
It was extremely easy to make
Lentils are great for a vegetarian diet because they are very high in protein and iron and apparently voted one of the top 5 healthy foods by Health magazine!


It went pretty well with a salad and chilli sauce.
