This is my new favorite lentil recipe! The yogurt adds a nice tanginess that balances out the spice of the curry. I also love the addition of sweet potatoes. They add a nice sweetness and texture to the dish.

This recipe was easy to follow and the lentils were cooked perfectly. However, the curry sauce was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I followed the recipe exactly and the lentils turned out perfectly. The curry sauce was also delicious, but I found it to be a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.
