Ingredients
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1/2 pound dry brown lentils
- 1 cup long grain rice (brown ok)
- 3 - 4 large onions
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- salt, pepper and cumin to taste
Use a four quart pan. Boil lentils in two quarts of filtered water. Chop onions and begin sauteing in the olive oil; saute until completely browned (really and truly brown, which will take until the lentils and rice are done). When the lentils begin to get soft, add the rice and spices; cook until the mixture is ''dry''. Pour the onion mixture over the lentils and rice and let the oil seep down through the mixture. Try not to stuff yourself.
Serves: 4-10.
Preparation time: 1 1/2 hr.
