It's time to pick garlic and peppers from the cauldron at three o'clock in the morning, and put more of this meat for me! Who did not have time, he was late!

Thank you Natalia !!! To be honest, I like any rice, from devzira it is very tasty pilaf, probably the most gorgeous pilaf, I really like basmati, laser, I specially cooked each time from different rice to understand how it is cooked, because each variety of rice is a different story !!!

The beauty. Taste. enticing.
Beef in pilaf must still be able to cook, so that it is soft, but not "wadded".
Pilaf of my youth. 80s, border of Tajikistan.
A pot, a wondrous pot for the Trans-Urals, is a cauldron.
Local delicacies - pilaf, manti.
And the rice is Krasnodar ...
Friendship with cauldrons on long years pilaf and manti both as ordinary dishes and as festive ones.

Thank you Irina !!! You are right, it is advisable to stew the beef before frying it with carrots !!! Lamb is softer !!!

vegetable oil 170ml
By the way, it should be noted that there is not a lot of oil for such a small amount of everything. And beef without fat.
Not fatty pilaf.

like potatoes in cast iron

Thank you Irina !!! There is no need to be afraid to pour oil, after cooking it will still be at the bottom and the lack of oil is no longer pilaf, each rice should receive oil and the aroma of zirvak

Duc, no one was afraid, in Soviet times.

And on the second day, pilaf will only taste better, the rice absorbs everything - the taste, and color, and fat.
Raisins in pilaf are also an addition to taste; they are tastier than meat, garlic and raisins.
