Directions
Onion Lentils and Rice, This recipe is adapted from “What to Cook” cookbook. Other than slicing the onions, it doesn’t take a lot of prep time. This is what I make when I come home from work hungry and exhausted and want something yummy and filling for dinner., I was searching for a recipe that I had all the basic ingredients on hand, when I came across this. I made following the directions, adding the optional fresh garlic suggested in the directions. After it was done and I tasted it, I did add garlic salt and pepper, but I am an admitted garlic junkie, so that may be too much garlic for the average person. Served it with some cooked fresh spinach. Tomorrow I will get some tomatoes and sour cream to try on the leftovers., Your recipe is soooo wrong! Too much water. Need to soak dry lentils or they stay half uncooked . I didnt follow your recipe I did it my way
