Ingredients
1 cup Bulgur wheat
1 bay leaf
1 cup green or brown lentils
2 cups water or stock
salt, to taste
freshly cracked black pepper to taste
3 large onions, halved and thinly sliced
1/3 cup olive oil or more
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
lemon wedges for serving

Instructions
Sort the lentils. Rinse and drain.
Bring 5-6 cups of water to a boil. Add the bay leaf and a teaspoon of salt along with the lentils. Cook for 15 minutes and then drain the water.
In the meantime add the onions to a shallow skillet. Season with a heavy pinch of salt and add the olive oil. Cook the onions over medium-heat until golden. About 20-25 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Add the bulgur, cooked lentils, salt, pepper, cumin, and 2 cups of water or stock to a pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes. Fluff and transfer to a serving platter.
Top with the caramelized onions and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges.
The mujadarah pairs well with Greek yogurt and a cucumber salad.
