This is a great recipe. I used already cooked lentils and regular barley. Instead of cooking the lentils in step 1, I added the barley. I then added the lentils in Step 2. I also adjusted the curry to 2 tsp. I think it would have been a bit bland without the extra curry. I also didn't use the feta and it was still quite tasty. I would definately recommend this for people who like lentils and barley. It was great as a main course and later as a side.
