Bajram pilaf from Uzbekistan
Home
Traditional Uzbek pilaf with lamb, raisins and quince. Preparing quick and easy, but, frankly, it's not the cheapest option. Besides, I had to be pretty run in search of quince. You can try to replace it with an acid such as apple Antonovka, I think, to get an interesting fusion! The amount of fat and oil adjust to your taste. I prefer wholesome food, and rice, despite the classical concepts, I do not have to swim in oil. At such a quantity of rice I had the 50 g fat tail and slightly more than 50 grams melted butter. Spices recommend buy on the local market from knowledgeable traders from Uzbekistan. And ask for the spice-Adha fires.
