[equipments]Notes
- Be careful not to overcook your lentils, since they will continue to cook in the oven. You don’t want them to become mushy.
- If you want to enhance the flavor of lentils, use broth instead of water.
- Crispier crusts and fluffier centers can be achieved with russet potatoes. The Yukon Golds will be slightly less crisp and have creamier centers, as well as a deeper color and taste. Both can be used together.
