Lentils with apricots and peppers

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
cup Lentils
6 cups Water
½ cup Dried apricots; chopped
1 cup Onion; chopped
cup Tomato; chopped
2 Whole poblano peppers; chopped
1 teaspoon Cumin
½ teaspoon Cinnamon
½ teaspoon Cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon Paprika
1 teaspoon Salt
1 bunch Parsley sprigs; chopped
1 cup Rice
2 cups Water

Directions

Adapted this from a Moosewood cookbook. I didn't have apricots, so I substituted golden raisins instead. Will try it again with the apricots.

Rinse the lentils cover them with water and bring them to a boil. Reduce heat. At this point, I added everything but the rice & parsley and cooked until done. In the meantime, I cooked the rice in the microwave (2 cups water to 1 cup rice) and stirred it into the lentils with the parsley.
