Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make pilaf with stewed meat in a cauldron? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. I take pork stew, but it can be replaced with any other one. You can take beef or chicken. Read how to choose rice suitable for cooking pilaf in a separate article below the steps.

Step 2

Step 2
Peel the onions and carrots and rinse them in running water to remove any dirt. Cut the onion into half rings or slightly smaller. Cut the carrots into cubes, circles or grate on a coarse grater.

Step 3

Step 3
Pour vegetable oil into a cauldron and heat it until hot. Add carrots and onions and fry in oil for a couple of minutes. How to choose the right vegetable oil, read the separate article at the end of the recipe.

Step 4

Step 4
Then place the stew into the cauldron. Break up the meat pieces. Wait for the broth to melt and form a homogeneous mass.

Step 5

Step 5
Next, add the washed rice and pour in hot water. Usually rice and water are added in a 1:2 ratio, but this time we take a little less water, since the stew contains broth that will supplement the missing liquid. Add pilaf spices to taste. You can take something specific or use a ready-made set of spices specifically for pilaf. Place a head of garlic in the center. Cover the cauldron with a lid and cook over low heat for 15-20 minutes.

Step 6

Step 6
During cooking, the rice will become soft, absorb water and increase in size. Stir and remove from heat. Leave to stand covered for another 10 minutes. Place the finished pilaf and stew on plates and serve. Bon appetit!
