Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup long- grain rice
  • 3 lbs chuck
  • 1 cup lentils
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (my aunt used chicken fat)
  • 2 tsp salt

Directions:

  1. Soak lentils in cold water for 11/2 hours. Drain and check for anything that needs to be removed.
  2. Cut the meat into bite-size chunks.
  3. Heat skillet over medium-high heat, add oil and when oil begins to sizzle, add meat.
  4. Brown meat in portions so not to lower pan heat.
  5. As meat is browning add onions to brown.
  6. Add lentils, seasoning and boiling water to meat. Cover and let simmer about 11/2 hours.
  7. Stir in the rice and cover pot and cook another 25 minutes.
  8. I usually soak the lentils in the morning, drain, cover, and set aside until needed.
