Mujaddara (or M'Jaddara) - Very Easy and Shockingly Delicious Recipe

I have had mujaddara - a Middle Eastern grain (I have had both bulgar wheat and rice versions) and lentil dish with fried onions - before in restaurants, but only attempted it at home for the first time a few weeks ago.  I was shocked at the ease in making this flavorful dish - just 5 ingredients (lentils, rice, olive oil, onions, and cumin) plus salt and pepper - and how hands off the preparation is, making it a perfect future party dish as well.  I used Victor Matiya's recipe from Madhur Jaffrey's World Vegetarian book, and was pleased that it used olive oil instead of the butter that I imagined must be part of the dish to develop its rich flavor.  This recipe is so good that I am planning on making the dish again today!
