My favourite dish is pilaf. Pilaf is well-known all over the world and is loved by many people. It is hard to say where it was first cooked but nowadays this dish is common in many different cultures. Especially it is common in Middle Eastern, Caucasian and Asian countries.
Today there are a lot of variations of this dish. So, pilaf is not only associated with rice and meat. There can also be fish, vegetables and fruit among its ingredients. In addition to that pilaf recipes vary from nation to nation. The proportion of the ingredients also plays a great role and influences the taste of pilaf.There are a lot of different ways to cook pilaf and some of them are kept a secret.It is needless to say that one can hardly get bored with pilaf.
Pilaf is also a good dish for those who like kitchen experiments. With so many recipes and variations there is always an opportunity to learn something new and widen one’s skills.
I also love cooking pilaf. I often cook this delicious dish for family dinner. I usually cook it with beef but sometimes I cook it with chicken.
To my mind, despite its rather simple ingredients pilaf adds a bit of festive touch to the table. I like soft texture of braised meat and taste of rice cooked in its broth. I think that a pilaf recipe should be a must-have in every home’s cookbook.
