Instructions to make Mjadra (Rice & Lentils):
- Dice onion very small, add tablespoon of oil in the pot. Once oil is hot add onions on low heat and brown them very well; they need to look as though they are burnt but aren’t. (I hope that makes sense).. once cooked transfer to cool plate/bowl so they don’t cook anymore and set aside.
- Wash lentils in cold water and add to pot. Add boiled water from kettle and simmer for 10-15mins with lid on.
- Once lentils have been cooking for 10-15mins wash rice in cold water then add to pot. Add remaining water and onions. Salt to taste. I like my food on the salty side for this and it just brings out the onions in it. After rice and lentils are cooked through serve with a simple tomato salad. Enjoy 😉
My Slow Cooker Mjadra experiment went extremely well! This is the ultimate cheap and delicious meal folks!!!!! This is even more perfect for my vegetarian friends out there! To make the tahini sauce while the mjadra cooks, combine tahini sauce, lemon juice, and garlic in. Turkish rice is also different from regular rice, its usually long grain, washed thoroughly and left to sit in water for ten minutes to remove starch.
