Tajikistan, oily rice

Салом,

Tajikistan was yet another state that at one point made up the USSR. The country has ties with Uzbekistan and share a national dish.

For Tajikistan I decided to cook plov. This dish is an all in one meal and used lamb as the meat with turnips, rice, carrot and apricots. There were a few seasonings.

Rice cooked in this manner is always sort of oily, probably not my favourite way but I like the flavour apricots and raisins bring out in a meal.
