1. Add oil to medium size pot, fry onion until soft. 2. Add chopped tomato, carrot, tomato paste and garlic and stir until a bit soft, about 8 minutes or so on low heat. 3. Add dry spices to bring out their flavors and aroma. 4. Add rice and lentils, cover with water just a bit over the rice, approximately 2-1/2 cups or so, bring to boil, cover and simmer for approximately 40 minutes checking periodically to see if tender. 5. NOTE: The lentils may seem a bit tough even after cooking, but leave covered for about 15 minutes and before serving they will be fine. 6. Great next to chicken or a great vegetarian meal all by itself! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
