This dish is a great way to use up leftover lentils. I had some leftover lentils from a soup I made earlier in the week, and I used them to make this dish. It was delicious!

This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The lentils and spinach are hidden inside the pastry, so they're not as noticeable. Plus, the curry spices make the dish taste really good.
