Makhbussa – an Arabic vegan lentil stew

Finely dice the onion and fry in a pan with olive oil until golden brown. Then add the lentils, rice, and water and simmer for one hour. Add the salt and stir well again. Cover and let stand on a cold stovetop for about 15 minutes. This lentil stew tastes best with a squeeze of lemon juice or as a salad dressing. My jars for the measurements hold 250 ml.
