Mujadara

0 stars based on 1 review
Ready in: 30-60 minutes ?
Difficulty: 3/5
Serves/Makes: 8
INGREDIENTS:
4 medium onions, divided
1/2 cup olive oil
3 cups dry lentils
6 cups water
1 cup long grain white rice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoon cumin
DIRECTIONS:
Toast the onions: Peel two of the onions, cut in half lengthwise and then into 3/4-inch-thick slices.
Cook in oil over medium-high heat in saute pan with a heavy bottom until onions are dark golden brown, 10 minutes or more. Stir occasionally so they cook evenly and don't burn. Remove using slotted spoon, leaving oil in pan; drain onions well on paper towels.
Cook lentils and rice: Peel and chop remaining onions. Rinse lentils. Saute onion in olive oil (replenish as needed) until tender. Add lentils and stir to coat.
Add water and stir in seasonings; bring to boil. Simmer about 10 minutes, until tender. Rinse rice and add to lentils. Cook about 25 minutes until rice is done.
Serve, sprinkled with toasted onions.

The recipe has you toast onions and remove them and drain them. It doesn't say what to do with them after that! Put them on top at the end? Put them back in to cook?
