One Pot Lentil and Rice Recipe Inspired by Lebanese Mujadara ???????? Easy Plant-Based Recipes for Vegans
This recipe is inspired by Lebanese Mujadara and a combination of a few Mediterranean recipes (however, I have added Ginger because of its various health benefits, especially with digestion).
➡️ When you come back, you’ll have one of the crucial ingredients for a vegan rice recipe that is rich in flavor owing to the inspiration of an old-world favorite dish from the Middle East. Next, you can prepare the sweet and fragrant basmati rice, herbs, and spices!
I hope you enjoy this modern instance of a centuries-old dish!
???? How long have you been on a vegan diet/plant-based? Let me know how it’s going in the comments below
▶️ RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (4 to 5 servings)
1 Cup / 200g BROWN LENTILS ONLY (washed and soaked in water for at least 4 to 6 hours (or overnight) until the lentils are very tender)
1 Cup /200g BASMATI Rice (thoroughly washed/soaked in water for 20 minutes)
3 Cup / 400g Chopped Onions - 2 medium size onions (430g with skin on)
1 Tablespoon ginger (very finely chopped)
1 Tablespoon garlic (very finely chopped)
3/4 Cup Strained Tomatoes / Passata / Tomato Puree
1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 Teaspoon Ground Coriander
1/4 to 1/2 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper OR to taste (Optional)
Salt to taste (I added total 1+1/2 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt)
2 Cups / 475ml Water
Garnish:
3/4 cup / 70g Parsley (finely chopped)
Freshly Ground Black Pepper to taste (I added 1/2 teaspoon)
Lemon or Lime juice to taste (I added 1+1/2 tablespoon lemon juice, I like it a bit sour)
Extra Virgin Olive oil (I added 2 tablespoons of organic cold-pressed olive oil)
▶️ METHOD:
✅???? USE A WIDER POT TO COOK THIS DISH (this will cook the rice more evenly and prevent it from getting mushy).
Wash and soak the brown lentils for at least 4 to 6 hours (or overnight) until the lentils are very tender. Thoroughly wash the rice until the water runs clear to get rid of any impurities/gunk (it's an important step so do not skip it). Soak for 20 minutes.
Heat a pan, add cooking oil, onion and 1/2 tsp salt. Adding salt to the onions will help release water and help it cook faster. Fry the onion on medium-high heat until it starts to caramelize. Once caramelized, reduce the heat to medium to medium-low heat (depending on the heat of your stove) and add finely chopped ginger and garlic. Fry until onions are nicely browned (be careful not to burn the onion).
Once the onion is caramelized, add the strained tomatoes/passata and spices. Give it a good mix. Add the soaked lentil and rice, along with salt and water. Cover and bring to a vigorous boil. Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to low and cook for about 25 to 30 minutes.
Uncover and check to see if the rice and lentils are cooked (it should be cooked by now, if its not, cover and cook it for a bit longer). Now continue to cook UNCOVER for another 1 to 2 minutes on low heat to get rid of any excess moisture. Turn off the heat.
Add parsley, lemon juice, black pepper and drizzle of olive oil. Mix very gently, the rice is delicate at this point and we don't want to break it. Cover and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving (for flavors to blend).
Stores well in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. It's perfect for meal planning.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
???? Soak lentils until they are very tender. The soaking time depends on the quality of the lentils. Some brown lentils are drier than the others and therefore need more soaking time
???? How to know if the lentils are soaked well? You should be able to cut a lentil piece with your nails, effortlessly. If not, then soak longer
???? It's really important that the lentils soak well. The reason is to match the cooking time of lentils with the rice
???? USE A WIDER POT TO COOK THIS DISH (this will cook the rice more evenly and prevent it from getting mushy)

RED LENTIL CURRY | MASOOR DAL TADKA | MASOOR DAL RECIPE
Red Lentil Curry - Masoor Dal Tadka - Dal Tarka - Masoor Dal Recipe
If there is one food that I can have everyday for lunch or dinner, it is dal in any form. Whether it is dal tadka made with red lentils or any type of lentils. Dal is a staple food of India and sometimes I am really amazed thinking about the innumerable recipes there are, with each region having their own special way of making daal. Today I chose red lentils for making dal tadka where Dal = lentils and tadka/tarka/chounk is seasoning or tempering the dal with hot oil/ghee and your choice of spices. You can even make this with yellow lentils or a combination of different type of lentils. Serve this dal with rice, roti, naan or a toasted bread along with any vegetable curry of your choice. Please visit my channel page for your choice of vegetable curry.
????Please click on the link below and subscribe to Curries With Bumbi so that I can bring more new recipes for you--
Ingredients required for making dal tadka - Serves 10
For cooking the dal -
* 1 cup red lentils. If you want to cook the dal in a pot then please watch this video -
Just remember not to add ginger while cooking the dal as shown in the above video because ginger will be fried later in this recipe.
* 3 cups boiling hot water
* 1/4 th teaspoon turmeric powder (haldi)
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
For cooking the curry -
* 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
* 1 large onion
* 1 & 1/2 inch length ginger finely grated
* 2 large garlic cloves chopped
* 2 large ripe tomatoes
* 2 cups of hot water (Add more if you want your dal to be more soupy)
* 1 tablespoon chopped coriander stalks(optional)
* 1 green chilli chopped (optional). Can even use jalapeño or Serrano peppers
* 1 teaspoon salt or as per taste
* 2 tablespoons oil
For the spice paste -
* 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder (optional). You can even use paprika if you so not want the heat. Please adjust the proportion of chili powder according to your preference.
* 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder (haldi)
* 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander (dhania powder)
* 4 tablespoons water
* coriander leaves (as little or as much)
For the tadka -
* 1 tablespoon ghee. You can even use oil or butter or a combination of oil and butter/ghee
* 1 dry red chilli
* 2 large garlic cloves sliced thinly
* 1/4 th teaspoon red chilli powder/paprika
Tips -
* wash your lentils very well before cooking until the water runs clear.
* cook the lentils till they are buttery soft.
* do not mash the dal too much after cooking.
* this dal stays good in the fridge for 3 to 4 days but keep them in separate containers for each day. Too much handling spoils dal very fast. You can even freeze this dal.
* if you want a more runny dal then add more water.
* dal thickens up a lot once it cools down. You can always add some water before heating and bring it up to a boil or microwave it. In that case check for seasoning and add a sprinkle of salt if required.
