Lentil Chili Topped with Cornbread

This recipe turned out okay, however I was concerned that it called for 3 cups of vegetable oil in the cornbread topping. Also, when I baked it in the oven in a rather large dish, it still boiled over. This caused me to have to remove some of the liquid partway through cooking. The recipe doesn't list how many people it serves either. Still, rather tasty though. If you use stock that is salted already, remember to not add so much later on to the recipe.
