Polow (or Chelow)

Ingredients: (4 servings)

basmati rice, 500 grams

cooking oil

salt

Directions:

The preparation of polow (or chelow) is more elaborate thankateh and results in a delicious non-sticky rice. It can be served with kababs or a variety of khoresht.

Wash rice twice and soak in salted warm water for 3-4 hours, then drain the water. Pour water in a large non-stick pan until it is half-full and bring it to a boil. Add rice and a spoonful of salt and continue boiling until rice slightly softens. Pour rice into a drain and wash it with slightly warm water.

Pour a few spoonfuls of cooking oil into the pan and add rice. Pour a few more spoonfuls of oil over rice. Cover the pan and cook over low heat for about half an hour. If cooking time is increased, a delicious crispy layer of rice (called ta-dig) will form at the bottom of the pan.
