Description

A typical Slavik dish: bad for the waistline, but oh-so-good in the belly.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Onions
  • 2 cups Shredded Carrots
  • ½ cups Vegetable Oil
  • 2 cups Pork (or Beef), Diced
  • 2 leaves Bay Leaves
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Pepper
  • ½ teaspoons Dried Basil
  • ½ teaspoons Dried Parsley
  • 2 cloves Minced Garlic
  • 2 cups Boiling Water
  • 1 cup Rice

Preparation

Saute the onion and carrot in the oil. Once the onion is clear, you can put your diced meat in and cook until done. During this time, add your spices. After spices have been added, pour in the boiling water and the cup of rice. Let everything boil for about five minutes (stir it around a couple of times). Then turn heat to low and let it cook until the rice is done.

Note: you can subsitute the salt and pepper for Vegeta. I only put salt and pepper there because most people do not know what Vegeta is.

Folks, serve it and eat it with gusto! Or sour cream. I like it with a dollop of sour cream and a slice of French bread.

This is about how I learned to make plov from my Tёtya! Though I often just use the spice packets, which you can order online from a Russian grocery if you’re in the US and don’t live in a big city with access to a Russian grocery. We prefer to cut our carrots in chunks though and we do not use garlic (husband is allergic) or any sort of herbs/grasses, except maybe some fresh dill. Great recipe though: cheap, easy and tastes great!

I made this today and it was yummy! A bit oily but all in all, pretty good. It was even better when slathered on some french bread. Mmm. Thanks for the great recipe!
