Lebanese Mujadara Adas

Mujadara adas is proof that three humble ingredients — lentils, rice, and a mountain of slowly caramelised onions — can become one of the most comforting plates on the table. This is the version Alex from Food Inbox cooks with his grandmother: brown lentils simmered until tender, folded through fluffy cumin-scented rice, and crowned with sweet, jammy onions cooked far past the point you'd think to stop. It's naturally vegan, endlessly forgiving, and tastes even better the next day. Serve it warm or at room temperature with a dollop of yoghurt and a sharp green salad.
