Why is it that everyone except me seems to have been eating this
forever? I just learned about it last year. <sigh> I love it too.

My Dear Son made Mujadara last weekend... he didn't know what it was
called (I told him). I don't know where or how he got the idea. I
took what he had, added more cumin (his cumin was too light because he
didn't want it to taste "Mexican"), added the onions he had
caramelized and cooked it a bit longer. It was delicious! Very good
for the first try of someone who didn't even know the name of what he
was making. I don't think he knew what it should taste like when
finished - he just liked the idea.
