How to Make Lentils And Rice Koshary Egypt
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté for 3 minutes until softened.
- Add 1 cup brown or green lentils, 2 cups water, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, and 1 teaspoon ground cumin. Stir well.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until lentils are tender but not mushy.
- Add 2 cups of water to the pot and bring back to a boil.
- Stir in 1 cup of long-grain rice and 1 teaspoon of salt.
- Increase heat to medium-high, bring to a boil again, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until rice is cooked through and water is absorbed.
- Remove from heat and let it stand, covered, for 10 minutes. This allows the rice to steam and become fluffy.
- Fluff the rice and lentils with a fork before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs (optional).
