ORIENTAL RICE PILAF
This is not fried rice, but rather a spin on it. Goes well as a side with many dishes. Don't skip toasting the sesame seeds. It's fun to watch them pop, too.

RICE PILAF
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350.
- Melt the butter in a 3-quart saucier over medium heat.
- Stir in the onion, bell pepper and 2 pinches of salt.
- Decrease the heat to low and sweat until the onion is translucent and aromatic but not browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Increase the heat to medium and add the rice. Cook, stirring frequently, until you smell nuts, another 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the saffron and its water, the broth, orange zest, bay leaves and the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Increase the heat and bring to a boil.
- OK, now the weird part: Thoroughly wet a clean towel, kill the heat, scatter the peas on top of the rice, then place the towel across the top of the saucier. Top with the lid, then fold the towel corners up over the lid.
- Transfer the saucier (towel and all) to the oven and bake 15 minutes.
- Remove and rest at room temperature for 15 more minutes without opening the lid.
- Fish out the orange zest and bay leaves. Turn the pilaf out onto a platter, fluff with a large fork and garnish with the raisins and pistachios. Serve family-style, right in the middle of the table.

OSH / PLOV - UZBEK / CENTRAL-ASIAN RICE
I first had osh in Uzbekistan, then later in various forms called plov in Kazakhstan. It's a belly-warming mixture of rice with spices, lamb, onion, and carrots lovingly fried, stirred. The Uzbek osh is my favourite with it's stronger spices.

Steps:
- Wash the rice. Allow to soak in salted water for 30 minute You can use Thai or basmati rice.
- Cut the lamb shoulder into cubes. It should have some fat. Bones are optional.
- Slice the onions thinly and cut the carrots into strips. You should approximately equal amounts of carrots, onions, and lamb.
- Heat a large cast-iron or metal wok with the oil. Don't use olive oil. Sunflower oil works well. Animal fat tastes richer but is even worse for you and too heavy for many taste buds. While you can get away with any kind of pot, it does taste better if you have an appropriate seasoned instrument.
- Fry the onions until golden brown.
- Add chopped garlic and lightly brown. You can alternatively put the whole cloves into the rice when you cook the rice.
- Add lamb and fry until cubes are lightly browned.
- Add carrots, salt, pepper, all spices (adjust to your taste), and 2 cups of water. Turn down the fire, mix well, and cover for 5 min to allow carrots to soften.
- This completes the first step called "zirvak". You are now ready to cook the rice in the second step. Drain your rice which should have been soaking for 30 minute.
- Push the ingredients to the outer parts of your cooking wok/pot creating a large hole in the centre which will be filled with liquid.
- Carefully add your rice to the centre of the pot. Do not mix it with the rest of the ingredients. Try to fit most of it in the centre "hole".
- Add another 1.5 cups of water, cover the pot and allow to simmer until the rice is cooked and water has been dried up. This will take approximately 30 minute.
- Stir the entire mixture well and serve on a hearty plate or bowl. Top with spring onions. It goes well with a side-serving of salad, tomatoes, and bread. Naan or other type of flat bread would be best.
PERSIAN RICE PILAF
A very fruity version of rice pilaf that makes an excellent companion to the 16th century recipe for Recipe #124579. It should be started before the chicken, so they are ready at the same time.

Steps:
- Bring water and salt to a rolling boil in a large saucepan.
- Add cinnamon stick, cloves, cracked peppercorns, cardamom seeds, and juniper berries.
- Add two cups of basmati or other long-grain rice, slowly, so the water doesn't stop boiling. Cook for about eight to ten minutes, stirring from time to time to keep the rice from sticking to the bottom, until the rice is just barely done.
- Pour everything into a strainer or colander and let the rice drain. Leave the spices in the rice.
- While the rice is boiling, chop the dried fruit. Throw the fruit on top of the rice draining in the colander.
- Thinly slice one-half of a large onion and sauté it until golden in 5T of unsalted butter with several pinches of saffron or one teaspoon of turmeric.
- While onions are cooking, grease a round casserole with a bit of butter and turn the spiced rice and fruit into a large bowl.
- Turn the golden onions into the bowl and mix everything up.
- Spoon the mixture into the casserole and pat the rice firmly in place with the back of a spoon.
- Drizzle 3 Tbsp of melted butter over the top and cover with two thicknesses of aluminum foil and seal the edges well. Add a lid if your casserole has one. Set the casserole in a preheated 350°F oven and let it bake for an hour.
- Then remove it from the oven and let it sit for 15 minutes or so before removing the foil and unmolding it onto a platter. (Lay the platter on top of the rice and, using a thick dishcloth or potholders, flip the thing over).
- Surround with the Persian chicken.
UYGHUR POLO (PILAF)
Polo (a Central Asian variant on the word pilaf) is a food staple found across Central Asia, including Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and parts of northwestern China. The different peoples of each region have their own takes, and their own flavors, for the recipe. This recipe is for Uyghur polo, the variant of the dish found in China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. Uyghur food is on the whole closer in taste to Indian, Persian, or Mediterranean food than it is to conventional Chinese food. I credit this recipe to my Uyghur language instructor. The recipe can be a challenge to cook correctly at first, but the challenge will prove well worth the effort because it is absolutely delicious.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large pot. Set the stove temperature at 7/10 at highest.
- Cook the meat in the oil, stirring occasionally until evenly browned.
- Add the chopped onion to the pot, still stirring, and cook until it is translucent.
- Stir carrots into the pot. Note that it will initially look like there are too many carrots in the dish; however, once they begin to absorb some of the oil they will shrink down and mix well into the the recipe.
- Add salt according to your taste.
- Pour water into the pot.
- When the water boils, add the hot pepper and whole garlic bulb. Let them simmer in the mixture for five minutes, and then fish them back out and set them aside.
- Add cumin.
- Lower the stove temperature (to about 3/10) and allow the mixture to boil for 15 to 20 minutes.
- After the 15 to 20 minutes, raise the heat (once again, no higher than 7/10) and add rice to the pot. Spread the rice out on top of the water, but do not mix it with the rest of the ingredients.
- When water is no longer visible above the rice, then spoon the rice towards the center.
- Replace the garlic bulb and red pepper into the pot, and pour raisins on top of the rice.
- Place a lid on top of the pot and lower the heat to 3/10.
- Cook for 30 minutes. After that time, once again remove the hot pepper and the garlic, and stir the rest of the ingredients. This dish is often served with flatbread, yogurt, and salad with a vinegar dressing.
