Directions:
- Bring to boil 4 cups of water in a medium pot. Rinse the lentils with fresh water and add to it. Cook for 5 minutes.
- Remove the foam with spoon and discard . Lightly drain the extra water in a container or a cup.
- Meanwhile, sauté the onion with 1/2 cup of water and one tablespoon of oil for 5 minutesor until tender.
- To the cooked onion add one cup of water, hot red chili powder (berbere), the rest of the oil, garlic and black pepper. Stir for 10 minutes.
- Combine the lentils and sauce. Mix well. If more water is needed, use the set-aside water. Cook the stew for 20 minutes until it simmers.
- Add false cardamom and salt to taste. Remove from heat. Serve it warm or cold.
- P.S. To make it mild, you may use tomato sauce.
