What an interesting way to use bulgur wheat, which I often use for salads but not much else. I love that you use so much cumin, one of my favorite spices.


No cooking after they are rolled? I want to try these, so I just want to be sure. The ingredients are all things that I love.


You already cook the lentils so no cooking after rolled.


I love the green onion and cumin in this Red Lentil Cakes recipe.
Thank you for posting such a unique and delicious recipe.

This is new territory for me. I had the same question as uhannigan-glad it was answered already. I've not seen red lentils, but this is intriguing and I'm going to try this. Thanks for the recipe.
