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.

Overall, this pilaf was a good dish. It was easy to make and the flavors were nice, but it wasn't anything spectacular.

I found the recipe to be a bit confusing and the pilaf didn't turn out as good as I had hoped.

This pilaf was a bit too oily for my taste, but the flavors were still good.

This is the best pilaf I've ever had! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the rice was perfectly fluffy.
