Lentils And Rice

In a large pan, heat

2 Tbsp olive oil (you can use less)
Add and saute 2 minutes:
1 large onion, chopped
2 green peppers, diced
2 inch stick cinnamon or 2 tsp dried cinnamon
4 cardomom pods or ½ tsp ground cardamam
4 whole cloves

Add:

1 cup uncooked brown rice
½ cup lentils
Stir fry for five minutes

Add:
1 ½ cups potatoes, cubed
1 cup cauliflower, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
1 ½ tsp salt
4 cups water

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until rice, lentils and veggies are tender, 20-30 minutes.
Use any combination of veggies that strikes your fancy. Greens, like spinach go well with the potatoes if you don’t
want cauliflower.
