Instructions
1. Prepare the Lentils and Rice
Wash the lentils and rice independently under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine the lentils with 2 mugs of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and poach for 20–25 25 twinkles, or until the lentils are tender but not mushy. In another saucepan, cook the rice according to the package instructions.
2. Sear the Lamb
In a large skillet or Dutch oven, toast the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed angel and cook until browned on all sides, about 5–6 6 twinkles. Remove the angel from the skillet and set it away.
3. Sauté Onions and Garlic
In the same skillet, add the diced onions and diced garlic. Sauté until the onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
4. Combine spices.
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, swab, and pepper to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Stir well to combine, and toast the spices for 1–2 twinkles until ambrosial.
5. Combine constituents
Return the seared angel to the skillet, along with the cooked lentils and rice. Stir gently to combine all the constituents and allow the flavors to immingle together.
6. poach
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the pilaf poach for 10–15 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend and the rice to absorb the aromas.
7. Garnish and Serve
Once the pilaf is cooked and the flavors have blended together, trim with diced fresh parsley or cilantro. Serve hot and enjoy the tantalizing flavors of the Middle East! for more recipes visit aasanrecipe.
