In many national cuisines there are rice dishes that have become not only the hallmark of the country, but also popular brands outside of it. In Russian cuisine, this product is not associated with complex traditions. However, rice is widely used in simple and hearty meals especially during Lent.

In the East, pilaf has been cooked since time immemorial. Not only in each country, but also in each region, there are subtleties of cooking and special recipes for this dish. The Uzbek tradition of cooking pilaf, included in the UNESCO Intangible Heritage List, can be considered a classic.

For pilaf in Fergana:

• 1 kg of meat;
• 0.5 kg of rice;
• 0.5 kg of carrots;
• 0.3 kg of onion;
• vegetable oil;
• tail fat;
• garlic;
• zira;
• barberry;
• pepper;
• salt.

For crumbly pilaf, long-grain rice is needed. The key to success is careful preparation.

Rice is washed for a long time, rubbing it in water with your hands to wash all the suspension and starch from the surface of the grains.

Lamb gives a special taste to Uzbek pilaf. In the festive version, a young lamb is used up to a year as a whole. The lamb is cut fairly large. Portioned pieces with bones are laid out when serving on top of the dish. A loin is taken from a mature ram. Everyday pilaf can be prepared from any meat.

The choice of dishes is also very important.

The necessary extinguishing mode can only be obtained in a special cauldron with thick walls.

In an ordinary pan, pilaf turns into porridge.

1. Traditionally, pilaf is cooked on fat tail fat. It is melted at the bottom of the cauldron, the roasts from pilaf are removed. You can add a little vegetable oil, but it should not have its own smell.
2. An important stage is the tinting of the oil. Chopped onions are fried until dark and also removed from the pilaf. The oil acquires a rich hue from golden to reddish. The tradition of tinting plov with turmeric or saffron came from India. Real pilaf does without this seasoning.
3. Pieces of meat are laid out in boiling fat and fried in high heat so that a crust immediately forms. The meat will retain its juice and remain tender.
4. Carrots are cut into long strips, rather large. In the finished dish, the pieces will break at least in half.
5. Onions are cut into half rings, in the process of cooking it will melt. In the finished pilaf, it is completely invisible.
6. Vegetables with meat are fried without a lid in their own juice.
7. When the carrots become soft, a part of the zira is rubbed over the cauldron in the palms. This seasoning will give pilaf a taste. The rest of the zira is covered with rice so that it retains more flavor. For a slight sourness add barberry.
8. Water is poured into the cauldron, at least 0.7 liters per pound of rice. The exact amount depends on the quality of the cereal.
9. When the water boils, zirvak, that is, a preparation for pilaf, is abundantly salted, taking into account the fact that rice absorbs most of the salt.
10. Groats are carefully laid out in boiling zirvak, evenly distributing over the entire surface. Do not stir the dish at this stage.
11. The upper contaminated layer of the husk is removed from the garlic and sunk whole heads in rice. Zira is poured on top of the cereal.
12. For half an hour, rice boils strongly without a lid. Most of the liquid should evaporate quickly. With a spoon, you can pierce the layer of rice in several places to speed up the process. Be sure to check the dish for the amount of salt. As long as there is liquid, it can be salted.
13. When there is no liquid left, pilaf is collected in a hill, covered with a ceramic bowl and a lid from a cauldron. Rice will slowly stew for another half an hour.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mObv4MpAMQ4
