Steps

45 minutes

1

Rinse the lentils and cover with water. Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes.
2

Rinse the rice thoroughly to remove the starch (to prevent sticking or becoming mushy), then soak in water for 30 minutes.
3

Add all the spices, the rice, and 1 1/2 cups water (about 360 ml) or more as needed. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to very low and cook for 15 minutes until done.
4

Fry the onions until golden brown. Serve the rice mixture on plates, top with the fried onions, and drizzle with the onion frying oil. Enjoy!
