Place the lentils in a small saucepan with 2 cups of the water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, and then reduce the heat and simmer, cover until the lentils are par-boiled (10-12 minutes). Remove from the heat, drain the lentils and set them aside.
In a large saute pan with a lid, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onions and cook until the onions are dark golden brown, darker than typical caramelized onions (about 40 minutes), sprinkle the onions with a teaspoon of salt as they cook.
Carefully pour the remaining 2 cups of water, bring the water to a boil over high heat, and then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir the rice and par-cooked lentils into the onion mixture. Cover and bring back to a boil. Stir in a healthy pinch of salt and the black pepper. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice and lentils are both cooked through (about 20 minutes). Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the Mujadara hot or at room temperature with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and parsley garnish, if you like.
If you are adding the the fried onions, heat the oil over medium-high heat (to 375 degrees F) in a saucepan. When a small piece of onion bubbles vigorously, the oil is ready. Fry the onions in batches until they are golden brown. Transfer the onions to a paper towel-lined plate or try, and then arrange them on top of the Mjuadara.

Place your basmati rice in a small sauce pot and add the vegetable broth or water, cover with a tight fitting lid and bring to a boil, then turn down heat to slow simmer for about 12 minutes or until tender. Set aside.
At the same time, place your washed and picked over red lentils and water in a pot uncovered, place in 1 bay leaf and simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes or just until the red lentils are tender. (Do NOT salt the water as this makes the lentils tough) Drain lentils and set aside.
In a separate pan add olive oil and onions and cook over low medium heat until caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.
Add the cooked red lentils and caramelized onions to the cooked basmati rice and add salt and pepper to taste, cumin and roughly chopped fresh cilantro and stir to combine.
