| 2.5-3 cups lentils | |
| 1 large onion – finely chopped | |
| salt/pepper | |

| Golpar (ground angelica) — desired amount sprinkled on top | |

Directions
1.
Wash and soak the lentils for a few hours prior to cooking.
Fry the onions in oil in a large pot until they become golden in color (set burner to medium heat). Rinse the lentils and then add them to the pot and stir in with the onions. Add some turmeric, salt, and pepper. Add enough water to cover the lentils completely.
Place the lid on the pot and all the lentils to completely cook. If desired add some lemon juice.
Once the Adasi is ready to be served you can spring some Golpar on top.
