14 Reviews of Mujadrah - Lentils and Rice

From: Sophia's Mom

On Jun 20, 2006

Loved this recipe. I'ts greate with baked chicken. I used Swanson's vegetable broth for liquid and When I sauteed the onions (the sweet variety) I also added sliced carrots and chopped green bell peppers. It turned out great. My 1.5 year old daughter loves it. Very easy to make.

    I enjoyed this dish growing up. Thanks for including it with brown rice, I have been making it without a recipe for about a year now and this one is delicious!! I prefer going a little heavier on the lentils and using 4 cups of water because I stir it lot (water evaporates).

    This was great! We followed the recipe to the letter except for also adding a spoonful of panang curry paste, which gave it a wonderful subtle flavor kick. We ate it with warm corn tortillas. Excellent!

    Thanks for this recipe, I was looking for something with lentils that was easy to make. I am in chemotherapy for breast cancer and read that lentils were a good source of protein and fiber, I left out the cayenne as I was not sure how I could handle it. Thanks again.

    This recipe is wonderfully flexible. We make it all the time. The poster who said it was bland didn't bother to try and season it properly. If you add the cumin and peppers, it can taste really good, and if you don't taste them after adding them, then maybe its worth getting new fresh spices.

    Not bad. Could have used more seasonings. I will try it again and experiment with it a bit more.
