Instructions

Put the lentils in a large saucepan with 4 cups of stock or water, the salt and the baharat. Bring to the boil and keep boiling for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, thinly slice the onions. Cook them in a saucepan with both oils for about 10 minutes, until caramelised and golden brown.
After the lentils have boiled for 15 minutes, add the rice, 3/4 of the caramelised onions and 1 cup of stock or water to the lentils. Set the remaining onions aside for serving.
Cover and simmer on low heat for another 15 minutes until the rice is cooked. Tip: you can turn off the heat after 10 minutes, keep the lid on and let the steam finish cooking the rice.
Serve warm or cold, topped with the reserved caramelised onions.
