Final Project

I am going to do something practical for my final project. I will be creating a website for my future Father-in-Law. I know what your thinking. What a brown noser. You 're right. My nose is brown, wait a minute, it's always that color.

The following has nothing to do with my final project.

Does anybody reading this blog like lentils? If you are thinking, I love lentils! Please read on. I am about to share a Mexican recipe for making lentils.

Ingredients:

1 cup dried lentils
1 medium onion
5 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon of ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt or to taste
Ground (cayenne) red pepper to taste
Ground black pepper to taste
1 cup of chicken broth (optional)

Directions:

1. Put the dried lentils in a pot .
   
2. Add 2 cups water (3 cups if you aren't using the broth) and the chicken broth
   
3. Add the onion, chopped
4. Add the garlic, chopped (If you microwave the garlic for 15 sec., it is easier to peel them)
5. Add the spices
   
6. Bring to a boil, Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until lentils are tender, about 45 minutes.
7. Remove cover and simmer over low heat, stirring frequently, about 20 more minutes. The lentils should be thick and mushy.

Serve with rice. I recommend jasmine rice.

Enjoy.
