Beefy Rice Pilaf With Lentils

1. 1

   In a heavy-bottomed pot heat the olive oil and butter on medium to medium-high heat.

2. 2

   Add the rice, onions, carrots, and seasonings.

3. 3

   Keep stirring as the rice loses the translucency that it got from the oil and goes white again.

4. 4

   Be VERY careful not to burn it because scorched grain reeks and tastes horrible.

5. 5

   Once most of the rice is white add the lentils and the beef stock.

6. 6

   Bring to a boil then simmer about 20 minutes, stirring several times, or until all liquid is absorbed and the lentils are tender.

7. 7

   Let sit covered for another 5 minutes before serving.
