Creamy Lentil Casserole with Dried Apricots

When you combine humble lentils with exotic millet and infuse them with the fiery heat of curry and the subtle sweetness of apricots, you’ll have turned a few pantry ingredients into exciting fare.

If you’ve got some smoked ham in the freezer or leftover meat in the fridge, cube and reheat it in the casserole along with the apricots at the end of the cooking time. A dollop of plain yogurt finishes this dish nicely.
