    Ingredients

    * 2 oz/50 g lentils
    * 1 pint/600 ml water
    * salt
    * 4 oz/100 g bulgur (cracked wheat)
    * 1 large onion

    * a few sprigs of parsley, chopped

    Directions

    Wash and rinse the lentils. Boil them in water and a little salt until they are soft. Add the bulgur and soak for 1 hour. The water should be completely absorbed, forming a moist dough. Meanwhile , fry the finely sliced onion in a non-stick skillet until transparent; stir in 1 tbsp. water, paprika, cumin and finely chopped parsley. Mix the lentil dough in a bowl with the onion and spices; knead for 2-3 minutes. Form into little cakes about 2'' in diameter and arrange on a dish.
