Osh Pallu
Bukharian Lamb Dish on Rice
Pilaf


Ingredients:
4 large onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup oil
1 kg mutton, cut into large chunks
8 carrots, peeled
1/2 tablespoon cumin
3 pins of cloves
1 cup mushrooms
½ cup white raisins
1 level tablespoon of salt
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 whole garlic heads
3 cups rice


Preparation:
Cut the carrots into diagonal slices. Rinse the rice under running water.
In a pan, fry the onion until it becomes translucent. Add the lamb and brown about 10 minutes. Put the contents into an empty bowl.
Pad the bottom of a pot with half of the carrots, and add the meat to the pot. Sprinkle black pepper, a bit of salt, raisins, prunes, garlic, and cumin. Cover with the rest of the carrots.
Add to the pot 1/3 cup water and cook for 20 minutes.
Mix the rice with salt and a tablespoon of brown sugar and add to the pot.
Add the remaining water. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes. Stir only the layer of rice occasionally.


At this point there will be very little water left in the pot. If there is too much water, you probably should cook a bit longer.
Cover the pot well (just seal with aluminum paper over the lid).
Cook for about 20 minutes on low heat. Turn off the flame, and leave covered for about 10 minutes.
Flip the pot over onto a serving tray.
(A little tip- put a wet cloth on the bottom of the hot pot for 5 minutes to ensure that what usually remains stuck on the bottom of the pot comes out easily.)
Serve aaaaaannnnddd....
Bon appetit!
