Ingredients
- 1 cup Brown rice - washed
- 1/4 cup Brown Lentils - washed
- 1 clove garlic - crushed
- 1 teaspoon ginger root - diced fine
- 1/4 cup Fenugreek leaves - dried
- 1/2 cup Almonds - Chopped fine
- 2 1/2 cups Water
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt - to taste
Preparation
If using a rice cooker add all ingredients and start the cycle. It should take about 25 minutes to complete.
Otherwise place all ingredients in a heavy saucepan and bring it to a boil. Allow to boil for about 3-4 minutes, stir briefly, then cover the pot and reduce heat to a simmer. Let it simmer, covered and undisturbed, for 20 - 25 minutes. Watch the steam level leaking from the edges of the cover. When it drops off markedly you're close to done. Turn off the heat and allow it to steam, still covered, for 5-10 minutes.
