Reduce heat and cover.Meanwhile, in a separate frying pan, fry the chopped onion in oil until brown--practically black.Carefully add the onions (with oil) to the lentils in the saucepan.

If too thin, boil uncovered for a few more minutes. Mixture will thicken up some as it cools.My family enjoys mixing the salad with the mujadarra to give it extra flavor (Check my cookbook, "Lebanese cooking with an American accent" for my Fattoush recipe)
