Mujadra is a classic middle eastern dish that combines warm spices with lentils and rice into a hearty vegan meal. What puts this dish over the top is the mound of deep carmelized onions that are served on top of this dish or mixed in. If you are up for making this dairy, you can serve it with some labneh or sour cream on the side…

  • 1 1/2 Cups Lentils : the firmer lentils, like beluga or French lentils will hold up best
  • 2 TBS Olive oil
  • 2 Onions diced
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 TBS Olive oil
  • 2 Onions cut into rings
