Rock The Casbah Rice with Avocado repost of a great recipe

[Guest guest]

Like the name I gave it?

I was asked to make this to go with Thanksgiving

dinner. I even found ripe avocados today.

Rock The Casbah Rice with Avocado

 

1 cup long grain white rice (jasmine or basmati)

1 large onion, cut in half and then thin moons

1/2 cup red lentils (not brown or green)

1 cup sour cherries (I buy them in a jar at Trader

Joe's or the middle eastern

store)

2 cups vegetable broth

1/4 cup cherry juice

4 tbls. olive oil

1 sm. clove garlic squeezed

1/2 tsp. mustard seeds

1 avocado diced

 

In soup pot or Dutch oven heat oil, saute onions a few

minutes, add garlic,

mustard seeds, lentils and

continue the saute, add rice and saute a few minutes

longer.

Add cherries, broth, cherry juice and bring to a boil,

stir and cover. Turn

heat to a low simmer and cook for 15 minutes.

Remove lid, form a few holes in the rice and pour a

little olive oil in the

holes, cover the holes and move pan around so the oil

moves across the bottom of

the pan, replace lid and continue cooking 5 to 7

minutes on very low flame.

This will brown the bottom of the rice and form the

tahdeeg. This is a

delicacy. Save the tahdeeg for yourself since you made

the dish. Fluff and

serve, place avocado slices over top.

*** Note*** OK share a few bites of the tahdeeg with

your favorite person.

 

 

I'd love to turn you on

Woke up, fell out of bed,

Dragged a comb across my head

Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,

And looking up I noticed I was late.

Found my coat and grabbed my hat

Made the bus in seconds flat

Found my way upstairs and had a smoke.
