2. Wash lentils in cold water and add to pot. Add boiled water from kettle and simmer for 10-15mins with lid on.
3. Once lentils have been cooking for 10-15mins wash rice in cold water then add to pot. Add remaining water and onions. Salt to taste. I like my food on the salty side for this and it just brings out the onions in it. After rice and lentils are cooked through serve with a simple tomato salad. Enjoy 😉
