Combine in a large frying pan:

• 2 Tbsp. olive oil
• 2 Tbsp. minced garlic
• 4 cups cooked brown rice
• 4 cups cooked brown or green lentils
• 1 tsp. cumin
• ½ tsp. salt or to taste
• ½ cup chopped fresh parsley or 3 Tbsp. dried parsley

Cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes or until heated through.

For authentic mujadara, top with carmelized onions. (My family members don't care for fried onions, so we always just eat this dish without them.)

I like to top it with Garlic Yogurt Dipping Sauce
