The 10 Most Popular Recipes of December 2022

Even well-known chefs like Yotam Ottolenghi occasionally have to cater to the whims of finicky eaters (kids!). Fortunately, he offers his tried-and-true recipe for Mejadra, a meal that is beloved throughout the Arab world and is especially popular in his own kitchen.

The Mejadra recipe is excellent as written, but you can also take Ottolenghi's advice and substitute the rice and lentils for any assortment of grains and beans you happen to have on hand. Green, black, or Le Puy lentils can easily be substituted for the brown lentils called for in this recipe; the latter will require an additional 10 minutes to cook.
