Directions
Lebanese Lentil/Rice Pilaf With Blackened Onions, This recipe first appeared as part of a meatless week-night meal in the November, 2003 Bon Appetit Originally posted by Mean Chef Vegans can omit the yogurt , Fantastic and filling! I added a little cayenne and skipped the yogurt to keep this vegan What interesting flavors Using high quality spices from a place like Penzey’s should address some people’s comments about flavor, if you don’t have any, then just increase the quantity , Just made this recipe It’s ok Lacks flavor too bland for my taste After reading the reviews, I even added more cumin and all spice, still was bland The lentils also need more time to cook than what’s stated on the recipe I wouldn’t make this recipe again
