Steps
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, mix the rinsed lentils with enough water to cover them by about an inch. Bring the water to a boil, lower the heat to low, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the lentils are tender but still hold their shape. Remove any extra water and place aside.
Step 2
While the lentils are boiling, heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add the bottom cumin to the skillet and toast it for 1-2 minutes until it becomes fragrant. Be careful not to burn it. Yank the skillet from heat and set aside.
