      Lentils and Couscous, This superb North African favorite with the combination of aromatic spices and crisp brown onion adding a real spark to the subtle flavors of the lentils and couscous , This was okay, but bland, which surprised me with all that garlic I cooked the onions for 15 minutes on medium, and they still weren’t browned enough to add the flavor that I think they should have Definitely start the onions when you start cooking the lentils If they get done before the lentils, you can always just hold them until the lentils are done For full flavor, you’re going to want them fully browned and not only on the edges like I did ZWT6
