The best rice dish ever has got to be Yotam Ottolenghi’s mejadra, or as some know it mujaddera, or simply as lentils and rice. It’s an easy plant based recipe where lentils and rice are cooked with spices and served under a mountain of fried onions. What’s not to love? In this video I show you how to make mejadra using a recipe from Otolenghi’s book, Jerusalem. His signature style is to take a classic recipe and breath new life into it, here he does that by adding coriander seed, cumin seed, allspice, turmeric and cinnamon. What I love most about this dish is that it is so economical, using pantry staples while being exotic at the same time. In this video I show you how to fry perfect onions every time and which rice is best for making mejadra. I serve mejadra with a simple dollop of yogurt or a simple cucumber salad made of cucumbers, garlic, red onion, cilantro and a little lemon juice. The fresh sour salad pairs beautifully with the earthy warm lentils and chewy sweet fried onions. This dish is not only delicious, it’s healthy as lentils are packed with plant-based protein and loads of fiber. If you enjoy this recipe, please leave a comment and subscribe for more like this. Not only do you learn how to cook this dish, but you learn why technique matters when making simple food delicious. This is a recipe the whole family will love, and to me that’s comfort food at it’s very best. The entire recipe is here: https://goo.gl/tGUO3V (I make one change and that is to reduce the coriander seed to 1 tablespoon, I find 1 1/2 to over power the dish a bit.)

Gosh! just cook the damn thing, talk talk talk

Thank you much
Thank you so much for your recipe. This one will become one of my main dishes. Thanks.
I must say I am into the food business and thru experience the pakistan basmati rice is MUCH better than the indian basmati rice. healthier and purer. Try it.
this is what's called Jerusalem rice
Absolutely delicious! I added a handful of chopped dates and served it with a dairy-free yogourt sauce (soy yogurt with lemon juice, olive oil, salt & pepper).
Palestinian food is amazing. The culture is unique
Βoth gorgeous!!!
I just made this. It was a little disappointing. A couple of thoughts. The recipe leaves out the very important step of soaking the basmati rice for about 30 minutes before adding to the lentils. Otherwise the cooking times are way off. And the toasted coriander seeds may not be the best way to go. They remained very crunchy and not in a good way. I would use ground coriander in the future.
Arab recipe.
Looking for this recipe and lo and behold I come across your video. My lucky day!! Never heard, or seen your videos before. Best kept secret of Ms.Oregon. Will try this soon. So easy on eyes and ears to watch/listen to you. Just subscribed. Afraid that your tapes are going to take up a lot of my time. Thank you and stay safe.
I haven’t had mejadra in ages! Thank you for reminding me how delicious it is 🥰
I made it after watching you video. It turned out excellent! TY.
Very good , made too much had it again the following night with some grilled chicken thighs and it had improved the spice had matured !
It's funny that you put less coriander. In Spanish there is a saying which states that "bueno es cilantro, pero no tanto", coriander is good, but not too much
All of those spices, especially the all spice and cinnamon are supposed to be in this dish, so this recipe is right on point. 😊. Delicious!
