Pilaf "Uzbek motives"
Finally we propose to consider the classic recipe is incredibly fragrant and hearty pilaf. Only if the traditional form it is made from lamb, then we take the pork. And if you want to use both types of meat in equal proportions. Also, the food comes the peas - it must advance as soon as possible, for example, the night before, soak in cold water. The product must be well soften regard to spices, we added barberry, red pepper, cumin, which are used in Uzbek cuisine. Of course, in an ideal dish cooked on the fire, but it's not going to take out the family especially the nature to taste pilaf? Therefore we suggest to do it in multivarka, it will be even more useful.
Ingredients:
carrots - four pieces
550 g of rice any
olive oil
60 g peas
Three large onion bulbs
600 g fresh pork tenderloin
a small handful of soaked raisins
barberry, and red pepper
Garlic - optional
cumin and salt
Cooking method:
Do not forget to pre-- for a couple of hours before the start of preparations - Peas pour cold water. Otherwise, it will remain firm and spoil the future pilaf. Then rinse under the tap rice, while he will not be draining clean, clear liquid. Remember the following rule: buying meat for the Uzbek dishes, take the product at the rate of 1 kg for four or five adults. Then it will look like, and hearty traditional dishes.
First, rinse the pork, then dry it with a towel and cut off the excess fat, then chop into large cubes. By the way, open a little secret: pilaf cooked much faster if you hold rice cereal for about an hour in cold water. You'll see how much it will save your precious time. Now prepare the vegetables: carrots refined to cut into thin strips, and onions - diced medium. If using garlic, remove its husk after each clove with a knife, divide into two or three parts. Do not add too much, otherwise the flavor of garlic pereb'ete taste of the pilaf.
When the deal with all the preparations, turn multivarku mode "Roasting" and pour it in a few milliliters of oil. We recommend to buy refined olive oil, as compared to other types of plant product, it is considered more useful. Pour into a bowl onions, browning it with constant stirring. When he becomes lighter and softer, enter the carrots. Continue to cook in the same mode, turning occasionally the ingredients with a spoon.
Then comes the turn of the meat - add it to the dish and cook for at least 40 minutes. When you manage, pour boiling water products, which should cover them completely. Attention now is the time to enter the peas and spices: barberry, bitter red pepper, cumin, do not forget the salt. Even if you're a little too far in the latter, it does not matter. All surplus absorbs rice cereal, which, incidentally, is laid at the very last moment when zirvak - so-called mass of fried vegetables and meat - is almost ready.
After adding rice kitchen appliance, switch mode "Quenching", close the lid and wait for 45 minutes. After this time, check pilaf - croup should get loose. Make it a shallow recess, pour into it pre-soaked raisins, then add a few cloves of garlic. If you notice that the water is completely evaporated, add about 1/4 cup of the hot liquid.
By the way, if you make a pilaf pork or beef, you can simmer it on a meat broth. Then he received a hearty and rich, but with lamb experiment is not worth it in itself is enough fat. To mitigate this effect, it is recommended to submit a dish with lots of greenery, such as dill or parsley. Often put on the table a bowl of pomegranate grains or wine vinegar. The acid will help remove excess fat.
It argued that pilaf - entirely masculine dish, which should prepare and head of the family. Maybe it is, but in our latitudes much of the responsibilities in the home is a woman. Therefore, if you want to taste the delicious dish, not necessarily wait until your man will be up to the plate. Surprise him with fragrant, crumbly pilaf on the basis of pork cooked in multivarka. If you do not have such a device, take the pan from the usual dense, thick bottom. We hope these recipes will take root in your family. We wish you success and exceptionally successful culinary experiments.
