This is my favorite type of pilaf similar to what my mother makes. You can customize it to your own taste.

Categories     European

Time 20m

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 cups Uncle Ben's converted brand rice
1/4 cup butter
3 cups water or 3 cups chicken broth
2 cups total of your favorite dried fruits (I use pine nuts, apricots, slivered almonds, currants and golden raisins) or 2 cups nuts, chopped into small pieces customize this part as you wish (I use pine nuts, apricots, slivered almonds, currants and golden raisins)

Steps:

  • Put rice and broth into a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer. Cover until the liquid is gone (about 20 min).
  • In a saute pan, melt the butter and add the dried fruit and nuts. Be careful not to burn the butter.
  • When the rice is done, put it in a large bowl and top it with the fruit and nut mixture.
  • Optionally, you may want to toast the nuts in a dry pan to help bring out more of their flavor.

I'm not a fan of pilaf, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The flavors were subtle and the rice was fluffy.

This recipe is missing some key ingredients. It doesn't include any salt or pepper, and it doesn't specify what kind of rice to use.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pilaf turned out mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pilaf was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.

This pilaf was easy to make and turned out great! I used basmati rice, and it cooked up perfectly. The flavors were spot-on, and I loved the crispy bits of vermicelli.
