Steps:
- Place the rice in a medium bowl and add enough water to cover by 2 inches. Using your hands, gently swish the grains to release any excess starch. Carefully pour off the water, leaving the rice in the bowl. Repeat four to five times, until the water runs almost clear. Using a fine mesh strainer, drain the water from rice. Place the strainer over a bowl and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a pot over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring regularly, until softened but not browned, about 4 minutes. Add the cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds longer. Add the rice to the pot, and cook, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes. Add the water, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until all the liquid is absorbed, 15 to 18 minutes. Off the heat, remove the lid and sprinkle the dried fruit over the rice (do not mix in). Place the lid over the pot and let stand for 10 minutes. Toss in the toasted almonds, fluff the rice with a fork, and serve.

Steps:
- Place the lentils in a small saucepan with 2 cups of the water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, and then reduce the heat and simmer, cover until the lentils are par-boiled (10-12 minutes). Remove from the heat, drain the lentils and set them aside.
- In a large saute pan with a lid, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onions and cook until the onions are dark golden brown, darker than typical caramelized onions (about 40 minutes), sprinkle the onions with a teaspoon of salt as they cook.
- Carefully pour the remaining 2 cups of water, bring the water to a boil over high heat, and then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir the rice and par-cooked lentils into the onion mixture. Add a good dash of kosher salt, black pepper, and the cumin.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice and lentils are both cooked through (about 15 to 20 minutes).
- If you are adding the the fried onions, work on them while the rice and lentils are cooking. In a large skillet, heat about 2 to 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat. When a small piece of onion bubbles vigorously, the oil is ready. Fry the onions in batches until they are crispy and deeply golden brown. Transfer the crispy onion rings to a paper towel-lined plate to get rid of excess oil.
- Let the rice and lentils rest covered for about 10 minutes undisturbed, then garnish with parsley and transfer to serving bowls. Top each bowl with the crispy onion rings.

NUTTY RICE
Entered for safe-keeping, from "Favorite Brands Best-Loved Chinese Recipes & More". The wheat berries add flavor bursts and textural interest to the brown rice. This is a U.S.-family oriented recipe from the California Tree Fruit Agreement. If trying to transition to brown rice, I recommend that you pass up Uncle Ben's converted brown rice, and get Texmati Brown Rice, because the Texmati tastes so good, and UB's disappoints (your family would insist on white rice next time). If you don't have wheat berries, use 1 cup brown rice rather than 3/4 cup brown rice and 1/4 cup wheat berries. Alternatively to a stove-top saucepan, put ingredients into a rice cooker, stir with a wooden spoon, close and press Brown Rice button.

NUTTY EGYPTIAN-STYLE RICE
This aromatic nutty rice dish makes a great accompaniment to any spiced lamb or chicken dish, or any grilled or BBQd fish or meats. It also goes well with other vegetarian dishes. If you are serving it as part of a vegetarian meal, use vegetable stock. I recommend my Vegetable Stock Recipe #135453, which I found only recently and am really excited about, because it's so different from other vegetable stock recipes I have used in the past. I have adapted this recipe from a recipe on an International Masters '1001 recipes for pan or wok recipe card' and I have posted it for the 2005 Zaar World Tour.

Steps:
- Peel and finely slice the onion, and peel and crush the garlic; grate the rind of 1 orange and squeeze the juice and cut the other orange into wedges.
- Melt the butter in a deep pan or wok, preferably non-stick, sauté the onion and garlic for 2 minutes; then add the cinnamon stick and the rice, cook for 2 minutes, stirring continuously, until the rice is thoroughly coated with the butter and mixed in with the onions and garlic.
- Add the orange rind and juice, the bay leaves and sultanas to the rice.
- Stir the turmeric into the stock, then add the stock to the mixture, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and all the liquid has been absorbed.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and keep hot; covering the bowl with foil will suffice.
- Clean the pan or wok (if you are using a non-stick pan or wok, all you need to do is to wipe it clean with paper toweling), add oil and heat through, then add the nuts and sauté for 1 minute, or until they are lightly toasted.
- Serve the rice garnished with orange wedges, coriander sprigs and pistachios.
- Variation: To add a rich golden colour and delicious aroma to this dish, replace the turmeric with saffron strands soaked in hot water.

NUTTY RICE
Adapted from Sandra Lee's Semi-homemade, the recipe posted on the website is missing the cumin she added in the show. Also, the original recipe uses instant brown rice, but I prefer using white rice. Since the rice is already cooked, you're just pretty much mixing and heating everything together to meld the flavors together.
