A lentils and rice puree. It is easy to prepare and can be eaten warm or cold. A dish that cannot be ignored! Every Lebanese family has it at least once a week. Excellent with fattoush salad.

ingredients

2 cups lentils, washed and drained
1/2 cup white rice
2 large onions, finely chopped
6 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons salt

cooking method 

1. In a bowl, soak the rice in warm water.

2. In a deep cooking pot, place lentils and 6 cups water on high heat. When water starts boiling, reduce heat, cover the pot, and leave to cook for about 30 min.

3. In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and fry the onions until golden, then set aside.

4. Once cooked, remove the lentils from the water and blend them in a food processor for a few minutes. Put back the lentil mixture in the pot.

5. Strain the rice and add it over the lentils. Stir for few minutes until the rice is cooked.

6. On low heat, add the fried onions and salt and stir continuously for about 20 min.

7. Before removing from heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

8. Remove from heat, pour in a serving plate and let it cool before serving.
