I felt like trying something new last night - so based on what was in the house I looked for a recipe for curried lentils.  I used one from cooks.com:

1 cup lentils
 
3 cups broth or water
 
2 large onions, finely chopped, divided
 
salt to taste
 
1 tablespoon oil
 
1 clove garlic, minced
 
1 teaspoon curry powder 
Combine ingredients, simmer 40 minutes

I did simmer for longer  - until the lentils softened up. I added it to a skillet with lightly sauteed bell peppers and simmered to remove more of the liquid, then served it over rice.  It was a decent meal, but didn't have as much flavour as I had hoped for - so I will continue to look for new curried lentil recipes.
