Pilaf is a meal that comes to our table very often to accompany main courses. It is very easy and quick to cook, delicious and satisfying yet you should know some hints to cook it properly.
Ingredients for 4 persons:
4 dl rice
1 tbsp vermicelli
1 tbsp butter
6 dl hot water
Salt
Directions:
Put the rice in hot water for few minutes. Strain the water and wash it with cold water once more, then strain the water again
Melt the butter in a casserole
Add vermicelli and lightly brown them in butter
Add the rice and stir over medium heat for few minutes
Add hot water and salt
Stir once more and cover
Let it boil on high heat
When it starts boiling, turn down the heat to low.
When the rice absorbs all the water, turn heat off.
Open the cover, put 1-2 paper towel sheets over the casserole and let it rest for about 20 minutes before you serve it.
Enjoy!
