Bulgur And Lentil Pilaf Recipe

Rinse the lentils & put in a pot with enough broth to cover.

Add bay leaf, bring to a boil & keep covered.

Turn off heat & let stand for 30 minutes.

While the lentils are soaking, melt margarine in a heavy pot.

Add chopped onion, salt & pepper.

Saute till onions are tender & transparent.

When onions are ready, keep heat at medium, stir in bulgur & continue stirring till all the margarine is absorbed.

Lower heat to a simmer & add the rest of the broth & lentils in their broth.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat again, cover tightly & simmer till all the liquid has been absorbed.

Add more liquid till the bulgur & lentils are cooked.

Remove bay leaf & serve with a vegetable stew.
