This “recipe” comes from a 40 year old cook book I inherited when I met Russell! “Entertaining with Kerr”. He was a pompus TV cook in Australia, and this is the only thing I’ve ever cooked out of the book. It’s also the ONLY way I enjoy my rice (and we eat a lot of that!)
Very simple but delicious rice dish. You can add currants or nuts to make it fancy. If using canned chicken broth, use one can plus water to make the two cups.
My daughters call this “Noodle Rice” and we have some variation on it several times a month. I’ve used broken spaghetti, vermicelli, and orzo in place of the egg noodles (choose eggless pasta to be totally vegan…well, duh, you knew that!) I also usually throw in a handful of golden raisins with it and up the water just a bit to account for plumping them up – the kids eat those first! Be creative…substitute a little lemon juice for part of the water if it’s going with fish, etc. A nice, reliable add-on to dinner, originally from “Betty Crocker’s New Int’l Cookbook.”
This recipe comes from Helen Saberi’s book – The Afghan Food & Cookery. Pilaf or pilau is a classic Afghan dish. The use of yogurt is also classic and it makes a delicious sauce. Ground red pepper is commonly found in North African & some Asian dishes, if you cannot find it use hot paprika or a mix of regular paprika with a little cayenne added.
