Ever since I learned you can cook lentils and rice together in the rice cooker I’ve been unstoppable.
Since everyone always assumes it’s totally unseasoned for some reason, I used soy sauce and a commercially prepared tomato chilli sauce. Plus pickled ginger because I’m an anarchist.
Om nom nom nom! Love lentils! I have a jar of sprouted lentils, and another of sprouted mung beans going all the time. My trick with rice is to cook it, cool it, then let it sit in the fridge for 24 hours to make resistant starch. Then I freeze some of it for later, and have some for now.
I should try sprouted lentils, they look so cool 😎
It was a habit I started years ago. I use a 1 pint wide mouth mason jar, with a ring lid and a circle of screen, that I found in a co-op in Durango, CO.
This looks great and in line with my extremely lazy streak of cooking. How much rice to lentils? What amount of water?
This particular mix is 1 rice cooker cup of lentils and 2 of rice. Same amount of water as if you were only cooking rice.
Excellent! Do you think I would work with brown rice?
Yes, this is brown rice!
Thanks for posting this. I will let my rice cooker make this for me over night tonight. I’ll probably throw some fancy soy sauce in it.
Hell yeah
I’m on my second bowl 🥣
This was excellent. Thanks for the recommendation!
Amazing! Happy the slop photo led to a tasty meal for you.
