Purple lentil braised rice

Every autumn, a large number of purple lentils are sold in Sichuan markets. Lentils not only have high medicinal value, but also have high nutritional value. The content of minerals and vitamins is higher than that of most root vegetables and melon vegetables. The meat is thick, the flavor is unique, the shape is half-moon, and the taste is fragrant and delicious. Like many purple vegetables, it is rich in selenium, which has good anti-cancer effects! I'm not very good at cooking, and I'm not a Sichuan girl, so I don't know many vegetables. I haven't seen purple lentils like this in my first half of my life, let alone how to cook them. My husband’s house used to be wood-burning, and his rice was cooked in a wok. The first time I ate it, I fell deeply in love with the taste. In the words of a friend, you can usually eat two bowls of rice from one bowl. And now that there are rice cookers, basically not many people make such rice, and not many people know how to cook it.
