Directions
Mujadarra,This is a fantastic lentil dish. In my quest to find healthier food that my family liked and would actually eat, I decided to try this recipe. It was demonstrated on T.V. by Ali Sabbah from the Mazza Cafe, a Jewish restaurant, in Salt Lake City. My family just ate this up, even my picky five year old boy. I had to post it before I lost the recipe.,Wow, this is excellent; my DH and I really enjoyed the flavors. Great mix of spices. I did add 1 1/2 cups of frozen peas at the end for a bit of color. For two of us I halved the recipe and still had leftovers. I have a niece who is a strict Vegan and this will be perfect for her. It took about 45 minutes for the onions to caramelize, but well worth the time. Next time i make this I will halve the onion rounds, so they are easier to eat. Thank you bluesagegirl.,A really nice and easy recipe, used red lentils will try with green next time
