Plov
Pilaf , pilav or pilau ( UK: /ˈpiːlaʊ, piːˈlaʊ/) is a rice dish, usually sautéed, or in some regions, a wheat dish, whose recipe usually involves cooking in stock or broth, adding spices, and other ingredients such as vegetables or meat,[note 1][note 2] and employing some technique for achieving cooked grains that do not adhere to each other.[note 3][note 4] At the time of the Abbasid Caliphate, such methods of cooking rice at first spread through a vast territory from India to Greece, and eventually to a wider world. The Valencian (Spanish) paella,[note 5] and the Indian pilau or pulao,[note 6] and biryani,[note 7] evolved from such dishes.
