lentil-rice-with-dates-and-caramelized-onions

Persian cuisine features an endless variety of flavored rice dishes, each special in their own right. One of my favorites is adas polo, or "lentil rice", a this itself can be enjoyed numerous ways. I love to eat it with piaz (caramelized onions), and khorma (dates) to introduce some sweet-savory-salty goodness. All this simple meal is a dollop of yogurt for creamy tartness and a sprinkle of almond slivers for texture and you have a perfect bite! All done in under an hour!
