Directions

Soak your rice and lentils together in clean water for a few hours, or overnight - then rinse in a sieve.
Add your oil or ghee to a deep pot, then add onions and sauté over a medium heat until translucent.
Next add in the fresh and dried spices and stir until they start to stick on the bottom of the pan. You may need to add a little water to prevent them from sticking too much
Add in all of your chopped veggies, dulse flakes and salt and stir to coat everything in the spices.
Add the water and stir well, then cook gently on a low simmer until the rice and lentils are soft, stirring often
Taste and adjust the flavours to your liking
