Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat, cook and stir the onion in the oil until caramelized, 5 to 7 minutes, set aside.

  2. Bring water to a boil in a pan over medium heat, add the lentils. Return mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, simmer until the lentils get soupy, about 15 minutes. Stir in the bulgur, salt, and pepper, simmer until water is completely absorbed, about 10 minutes, stir in the caramelized onions. Remove from heat, cover, and allow to rest for 3 to 5 minutes.

  3. Divide lentils into 4 even portions, squeeze one lime wedge over each portion and top with green onions and yogurt.

Recipe Note

Warm lentils served with cool yoghurt and the spice of green onions makes this dish a refreshing and filling side dish or entree.
