Rinse the lentil and cook them in 3-4 cups water until soft (about 30 minutes). Drain excess liquid. Mash lentils slightly.
Meanwhile, peel and chop both onions, cooking them on a skillet with the oil until translucent or golden.
In a large pot or bowl, combine mashed lentils with onions, rice, tomato paste, spices, quartered tomatoes, and pasta sauce until mixed well.
Press mixtured into a well-oiled loaf or baking dish. Spread 1/2 cup ketchup across the top. Bake at 350-degrees for 1 hour.
Add additional ketchup to taste. Will keep (covered) in the refrigerator for 7-10 days.
