Instructions
2
Bring lentils and 4 cups of aqua to a bubble in a medium pot or saucepan over high scalding up.
3
Reduce the scalding up to low and make until lentils are just succulent (15-17 mins).
4
empty out from aqua and scented element with a little seasoning.
5
(Note: when the lentils are ready, they should not be fully cooked.
6
They should be only par-cooked and still have a bite to them as they need to finish making with the rice).
8
empty out the rice from its soaking aqua.
9
Combine the par-cooked lentils and the rice in the saucepan over medium-high scalding up with 1 tbsp making fat, seasoning, pepper, and coriander.
10
make for 3 mins, stirring regularly.
11
toss in toasty aqua to put a lid on the rice and lentil mixture by about 1 1/2 inches (you’ll probably use about 3 cups of aqua here).
12
Bring to a bubble; the aqua should reduce a bit.
13
Now put a lid on and make until all the liquid has been absorbed and both the rice and lentils are well cooked through (about 20 mins).
14
Keep covered and undisturbed for 5 mins or so.
16
While the rice and lentils are making, make the pasta according to package steps by adding the elbow pasta to boiling aqua with a dash of seasoning and a little fat.
17
make until the pasta is al dente.
19
put a lid on the chickpeas and toasty in the microwave briefly before serving.
20
Make the brittle shallot topping.
21
shower the shallot rings with seasoning, then toss them in the ground mix to coat.
22
Shake off excess ground mix.
23
In a large skillet, scalding up the making fat over medium-high scalding up, make the shallot rings, stirring often, until they turn a nice caramelized brown.
24
Onions must be brittle, but not burned (15-20 mins).
