• active time: 5 mins
• total time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

½ cup Canola oil

2 Medium Yellow Onions finely chopped or grated

⅓-1/2 cup Berbere seasoning

1 tablespoon Ginger Puree

1 tablespoon minced, pressed, or pureed garlic

1 cup Dried Red Lentils

3+ cups Water

Salt and Pepper

Directions

In a medium sized saucepan over medium-high heat, cook onions in canola oil until soft.

Add Berbere (Start with ⅓ cup if you’re not used to this!), ginger, garlic, and lentils, stir well. Add 3 cups of water, bring to a boil.

Once mixture boils, turn heat down to medium or medium-low. Simmer lentils – stirring frequently – until water is absorbed and lentils are mushy. Remove from heat.

Taste, add more Berbere if you’d like, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve hot, with injera.
