Misir Wot (Spiced Lentil Mush) Ingredients

1 1/2 c Red lentils	2 Cloves garlic; minced
2 c Water	2 tb Berbere mix
1 lg Onion; finely chopped	Little water
2 tb Olive oil; more or less

Instructions for Misir Wot (Spiced Lentil Mush)

For Misir Wot, cook 1 1/2 cups red lentils in 2 cups water for about a 1/2 hour. Then, saute a large finely chopped onion in a couple tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet until clear. Add a couple minced cloves of garlic, saute a little more, then put in 2 tbsp. berbere mix (see recipe for "Berbere") and a little water to keep it from sticking. Add the cooked lentils, and cook everything on low until the lentils completely disintigrate - about 1/2 hour again. If you prefer the dish to look red rather than yellowish, sprinkle in some sweet paprika at the end. The recipe says "serves 8", but its more like 4 in my house. :-) Philly Markowitz CHILE-HEADS ARCHIVES From the Chile-Heads recipe list.
