Can I cook lentils in a rice cooker?

Question

Can I cook lentils in a rice cooker? Would I need to adjust my lentils/water ratio?

wold you cook rice and lentils together? or rice is cooked yet? are lentils dry, fresh or canned yet cooked? — violadaprile, Apr 19 '13 at 23:37

I'd go with the 'porridge' or 'brown rice setting' if your cooker has it. Concensus on water ratio seems to be about same as for rice.

With a quality cooker, you can also make baked beans and tasty onion soup.
