Saute onions in olive oil until golden brown (not burnt or crisp). In a heavy 4 quart sauce pan, mix water, lentils and spices. Place on high heat and bring to a rolling boil. After 10 minutes, add onions and all the olive oil. Stir well. Stir in brown rice.

Top with plain yogurt.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is a nutritional dish that is one of those Eastern staple foods that pack and travel well on your Camel while crossing the great Arabian deserts. It’s a good leftover served hot or cold. This is low in cholesterol, fat and calories. It is also high in fiber especially if brown rice is used.
