Pork chop # fig & coriander sauce # persian rice pilaf # grilled asparagus

One of the earliest literary references to Pilaf can be found in the histories of Alexander the Great when describing Bactrian hospitality..."Pilaf is an absorption technique for cooking grains in which the grain is sautéed briefly in butter, then simmered in stock or water with various seasonings. Flavours may be added by starting with onions or other vegetables sautéed in oil or butter before adding the rice, using chicken, or other stock in place of water, and adding herbs and spices. "
