   Cut the breasts and meat from the legs; we do not use the skin or bones.

   Cut into fairly large pieces

5. STEP 5

    Then place the carrots and onions in the cauldron

11. STEP 11

    

    Fry for 10 minutes, then salt and add spices: red pepper, turmeric and barberry are best suited for pilaf, at this stage you can add any spices to your taste, cover and simmer for another 25 minutes

12. STEP 12

    

    Rinse the rice in several waters, as if rubbing between your fingers until the water runs clear.

    Zirvak is ready - place a layer of rice on top, pour water carefully so as not to wash off the layer of rice, you can add a little more salt - rice loves salt. When the water boils, reduce the heat to low, bury the head of garlic, removing only the top layer of husk

    Cover the cauldron with a lid and cook until the rice has absorbed all the water. Turn off the stove and let the pilaf brew for a while

I think many people love pilaf and I am no exception. For lunch I decided to please my loved ones with duck pilaf in a cauldron on the stove. I trimmed the meat from the duck and cut it into medium pieces. I chopped the duck fat finely and put it in a cauldron for rendering. Meanwhile, I washed the rice several times. I cut the carrots into strips and the onion into cubes. When the fat was rendered, I took the greaves out of the cauldron and put pieces of meat into it. When it was fried for about 10 minutes, I added the onion and carrots and fried for 15 minutes. At this stage I added salt and spices. Then she put rice in the cauldron and poured water so that the rice was completely covered with water. I put two cloves of garlic in the rice. Cover with a lid and simmer for about 40 minutes, adding water if necessary. The rice with duck turned out fluffy and aromatic, thanks to the garlic. The meat is tender and soft. For pilaf, I always cut the carrots into strips, so they feel better in the dish. For spices, I added red paprika, salt and black pepper. The dish was served with a cucumber and tomato salad.

Pilaf is my weakness, I love it very much, but I’ve almost never cooked it...(I still have personal doubts)..BUT the main thing is that after watching the video, naturally with great pleasure, I discovered.....that that same cauldron that was missing from me , we can completely replace it with ducklings. HURRAY!!!

Thanks for the recipe! I have a question: is it possible to cook pilaf in a wok? I don't have a cauldron or a cast iron pan.... But I do have a wok. Will it work?
