Pilaf That Always Turns Out
by Editorial Staff
Many are afraid to cook pilaf – it turns out to be porridge, then dry, then too watery. In addition, gurus of Uzbek cuisine like to talk about it at length, flowery and with a lot of restrictions. It seems that cooking pilaf is more difficult than flying a spaceship. It’s not like that at all! Pilaf is a simple meal. And pilaf is prepared easily and simply! Without any show-off and troubles!
Ingredients
- Meat (chicken, lamb, etc.) – 1 kg
- Rice (long grain parboiled or other rice) – 1 kg
- Carrots – 1 kg
- Bulb onions – 4 pcs.
- Garlic – 2 heads
- Fresh hot pepper – 2 pods
- Zira or other spices – to taste
- Salt to taste
- Vegetable oil – 250-300 ml
Directions
- We prepare all products for pilaf.
Cut the meat into pieces.
- Cut the onion into cubes, the carrots into large enough cubes.
- In a preheated cauldron, lightly fry the onion in vegetable oil.
- Add the meat, fry it almost until tender.
- We fall asleep carrots, fry. Salt, add spices
- We wash the rice well, put it in a cauldron, stir it and fill it with boiling water so that the water covers the rice by 2-2.5 cm. It is better not to add water. If during the cooking process it turns out that there is not enough water, you can safely add it. But if there is a lot of water, the rice is guaranteed to be digested.
- Bring to a boil without covering. We try it for salt and add salt if necessary.
- As soon as it boils, add whole heads of garlic, peeled from the top husk, and hot pepper pods. Reduce the heat to a minimum, cover and leave the pilaf for 20 minutes . After 20 minutes, check: if the rice is still raw and there is no more water, add some hot water and cover again. The cooked rice should not be too soft.
- Turn off the heat and let the pilaf stand for 15-20 minutes.
- Traditionally, the Achuchuk salad (Achik-Chuchuk or, otherwise, Shakarob) is prepared for the Uzbek pilaf. Cooking it is elementary: chop the tomatoes and onions, add salt and black pepper. No oil is added to this salad.
- Pilaf is ready!
Enjoy your meal!
