Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Combine rice and lentils in a pot and rinse well.
  2. Cover the mix with water. I learned this trick from one of Chinese students- put the third finger into the water and rice mix. When the water is at the level of the first knuckle, that's enough. It works every time.
  3. Add the rest of the ingredients and you can soak it or start cooking right away.
  4. Bring to boil, cover and simmer for about 1 hour.
