Kusherie (Egyptian Rice and Lentils), Easy to make, despite the recipe length, and high in protein In Egypt this is served with plain yogurt as a side dish From Mennonite cookbook More-With-Less ”, Never liked lentils before I read the previous comments and gave it a try Everyone liked it and I will give make it again Shared with a friend who needed a vegan recipe Now, on to red lentils!, I made this tonight for dinner and my kids really liked it I left out the onions, only because I didn’t have a burner on my stove left to make them I had an issue with the rice and lentils sticking to the bottom after the 25 minute cook time where it said not to touch them, I’m not sure if my heat was too high or something, but I wasn’t terribly concerned about that, because we still had enough to feed everyone and I soaked the pan it and it came clean just fine Thanks for an interesting way to use up some lentils that have been lingering in my kitchen for a while

This is beyond a five star rating.  My family absolutely adored this cobbler.  The hint of lemon with the blackberries is delicious and the sweet biscuit topping was perfect.  Yum
