Pilaf with chickpeas
1
Pilaf with chickpeas is a dish that brings together a rich combination of flavors and aromas on one plate. Chickpeas add a nutty note and make the meal more filling, appealing to both gourmets and those who eat healthily. Soaking the chickpeas overnight cuts cooking time in half and makes the process easier. The combination of rice and legumes creates a complete protein balance.
Variations
- Vegetarian version: replace meat with chickpeas (400 g).
- Meat version: use lamb or beef instead of pork.
- Fasting version: cook in vegetable oil without meat.
Secrets of tenderness and flavor
- Soak chickpeas for at least 8 hours in cold water.
- Add chickpeas together with the meat so they soften completely.
- Rinse rice 5–7 times until the water runs clear.
Ingredient tips
- Use long-grain rice that doesn’t overcook.
- Choose chickpeas that are clean and evenly beige.
- Cumin and barberry give pilaf its authentic taste.
Cooking nuances
- Do not stir the pilaf while cooking — just level the top.
- Reduce heat to minimum after boiling.
Let the pilaf rest under the lid for 15–20 minutes.
