Smoky pilaf from the barbecue
A dish that originated in the Middle East but is now eaten worldwide. When making pilaf, it is essential to weigh the amount of water in advance to achieve the desired result in the oven. Pilaf is usually prepared in the oven, but cooking it on the barbecue gives the rice a subtle smoky flavour.
