Rice with lentils and crispy onions (Mojardara) from Persiana: Recipes from the Middle East & Beyond (page 65) by Sabrina Ghayour

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This was delish and I will definitely make it again. 100% agree with the previous comment about the onions. I am not even an onion lover myself, but the crispy ones on the rice are indeed a deal breaker. Don't be scared of the quantity either. The onions disappear when fried, so use them all! :)

    My husband made this for Christmas day lunch. Easy and very tasty. The crispy onions are the deal breakers here. Don't skip this part of the recipe. They do make a difference with both flavour and texture. My husband served this with the Spice -Perfumed Shoulder of Lamb (pg 128) and the Tomato Salad with Pomegranate Molasses (pg 160) and another side (not from a cookbook) As the author points out she makes double as she likes to eat it for several days afterwards. So my husband decided to do just that. Looking forward to having more over the next few days.
