Recipe
1
Rinse 200 grams of basmati rice and 200 grams of green or brown lentils separately in water. Soak them for 30 minutes.
2
In a large pan, heat 4 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add 2 thinly sliced large onions and cook until they turn golden brown and caramelized. This may take around 15-20 minutes. Remove half of the caramelized onions and set aside for garnishing.
3
Add 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground allspice to the remaining onions in the pan. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4
Drain the soaked rice and lentils, and add them to the pan. Stir well to combine with the onion and spice mixture.
5
Pour in 1 liter of water and add salt to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes or until the rice and lentils are cooked and the water is absorbed.
6
Remove the pan from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. Fluff the mujaddara with a fork and transfer it to a serving dish.
7
Garnish with the reserved caramelized onions and a handful of chopped fresh coriander or parsley. Serve hot with yogurt or a side salad.
