Mejadra: Lentils & Rice - Yotam Ottolenghi's Recipe from 'Jerusalem' | Fresh P
SUBSCRIBE:
The best rice dish ever has got to be Yotam Ottolenghi's mejadra, or as some know it mujaddera, or simply as lentils and rice. It's an easy plant based recipe where lentils and rice are cooked with spices and served under a mountain of fried onions. What's not to love? In this video I show you how to make mejadra using a recipe from Otolenghi's book, Jerusalem. His signature style is to take a classic recipe and breath new life into it, here he does that by adding coriander seed, cumin seed, allspice, turmeric and cinnamon. What I love most about this dish is that it is so economical, using pantry staples while being exotic at the same time. In this video I show you how to fry perfect onions every time and which rice is best for making mejadra. I serve mejadra with a simple dollop of yogurt or a simple cucumber salad made of cucumbers, garlic, red onion, cilantro and a little lemon juice. The fresh sour salad pairs beautifully with the earthy warm lentils and chewy sweet fried onions. This dish is not only delicious, it's healthy as lentils are packed with plant-based protein and loads of fiber. If you enjoy this recipe, please leave a comment and subscribe for more like this. Not only do you learn how to cook this dish, but you learn why technique matters when making simple food delicious. This is a recipe the whole family will love, and to me that’s comfort food at it’s very best. The entire recipe is here: (I make one change and that is to reduce the coriander seed to 1 tablespoon, I find 1 1/2 to over power the dish a bit.)
