or Mjeodrah
from my "Fix it and Forget it" cookbook
Saute in 1 T. olive oil:
1 c. chopped carrots
1 c. diced celery
2 c. chopped onion
(I usually use a lot more veggies)
When these veggies are soft, transfer them to the slow cooker.
Using the same skillet and another 1T. olive oil, brown until dry
2 c. brown rice
add to slow cooker
Finally, add and stir:
6 c. water (I use prepared bullion)
1 lb. rinsed and drained lentils
Cook on High 6-8 hours
The cookbook suggests it be topped with a garden salad and vinaigrette. I like it plain with some fresh Roti or Nan from an Indian restaurant, or I'll make whole wheat pitas.
Is the rice cooked before you put it in the cooker?
ReplyDeleteSorry Alina, I didn't know I had a comment/question here. I don't usually cook the rice. The Fix It and Forget It Cookbook I use says to cook the raw rice in oil before adding to the slow cooker.
