I have not tried this side dish yet but I am longing to do so . The recipe was in Sunday Life. Apparently koushary is commonly sold as street food in Egypt and often includes tomato and lentils.

This is a great dish, I loved the taste. It gives a lot of serving. Perfect for leftover. I had to lower the heat cause it was sticking to the pan. I added more water. Thanks Kate Made for Holiday tag
