Steps:
- In a large pot, sauté the diced red onion and minced garlic in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the water, green lentils, and salt to the large pot. Bring to a boil.
- Cover with lid and simmer for 10 minutes.
- To make the caramelized onions, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over low heat and add the onion slices, stirring occasionally until completely soft, dark brown, and caramelized.
- NOTE: This will take about 30 minutes. The onions should become very dark and tacky when finished. Stir often to avoid burning.
- Add the rice, cumin, cinnamon, and bayleaf to the lentils. Stir.
- Cook covered for about 15 minutes, or until rice is cooked.
- Serve lentils and rice topped with the caramelized onions, chopped fresh parsley, lemon wedges, and Greek yogurt if desired.
- Enjoy!

RED LENTILS WITH RICE
Steps:
- Put the oil in a large skillet or flameproof casserole with a lid over medium-high heat; a minute later, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown on its edges, about 5 minutes. Stir in the curry powder, then 3 cups water. Bring to a boil and add the lentils and rice. Bring back to a boil, then cover and adjust the heat so the mixture simmers steadily.
- Cook until the rice and lentils are tender, about 20 minutes. Uncover and, if necessary, boil off excess water. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the butter if you're using it. When it has been incorporated, turn off the heat and serve.
COCONUT LENTILS WITH RICE
Years ago I made this recipe for my kids, and they loved it. One of my daughter's friends would always request this dish when she came over to visit. I recommend basmati rice for this dish. -Diane Donato, Columbus, Ohio

EASY ONE POT LENTILS AND RICE
I made this for dinner tonight, and the whole family loved it. I make lentils and rice quite often in a million and one different ways, and never with a recipe, but decided to post this one for safe keeping so that I can make it this way again. I served this as a rice ring (with easy glazed carrots and raisins in the middle). I had no onions on hand, but this would be excellent with carmelized onions on top. You may need to use a little more or less water depending on the age of your lentils. I used 6 1/2 cups, and it was perfect. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did!

Steps:
- Cover the lentils with the water.
- Peel and crush the garlic cloves lightly with the back of a knife. Leave the cloves whole, so that they flavor the dish but can be removed if desired. (I leave them out of the kids' portions, and give them to my DH and myself).
- Add garlic to the pot, along with the bay leaves, cumin seeds and cinnamon. (DO NOT add salt at this point, as lentils will not cook properly).
- Bring to a boil. Cook at a boil until the lentils are just tender. This should take about 25 minutes, but may take longer dependig on the age of your lentils.
- Add the rice, salt and olive oil, and bring back to a boil.
- Stir, cover pot, reduce heat to low, and cook for 15 minutes.
- Check to make sure the rice is done, adjust seasonings, and serve. If there is still too much liquid in the pan, just let it sit uncovered for a few minutes.
- Enjoy!

LENTILS WITH GROUND BEEF AND RICE
This is a recipe I learned from my grandma and mom and adapted to my tastes. I absolutely love it. I like it thick and creamy so before adding the ground beef make sure you like the consistency of the lentils and rice. If it's too soupy for your tastes, eliminate some of the water.
