Turkish Pilav (Rice with Noodles)

by Editorial Staff

I tried this side dish for the first time on vacation. This is a very simple and tasty dish made from common products – rice and noodles. It is called pilav and is prepared in many countries of the Near and Middle East.

Ingredients

  • Vermicelli – 0.5 cups (about 60 g)
  • Long grain rice – 0.5 cups (110-120 g)
  • Butter – 15-20 g (3-4 teaspoon)
  • Salt – 1 teaspoon flat (to taste)
  • Water (boiling water)

Directions

  1. We wash the rice in cold water. Melt the butter in a preheated pan. Fry the vermicelli until golden brown, stirring constantly.
  2. Add rice to the noodle pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Salt and pour boiling water so that the water covers the rice and noodles (a little higher). Reduce heat, cover, and cook over low heat until cooked for 15-20 minutes, until rice and noodles have absorbed all the water. If after 15 minutes the rice is still not ready and the water has boiled away, you can add a little boiling water.
  3. Mix rice with noodles. You can add more salt and your favorite spices to taste. Turn off the heat. Cover the pan with a paper or cotton towel and cover with a lid on top. We leave for 10 minutes. The moisture from the rice will be absorbed into the towel and the dish will be more crumbly.
  4. Turkish pilav is ready. You can serve rice with noodles as a side dish for any meat or fish dishes where there is gravy.

Enjoy your meal!
