Pilaf is a very ancient dish, the origin of which can hardly be reliably established. It can be assumed that the principles of cooking pilaf was developed in the middle East and India not earlier than the II—III centuries BC, that is, with the beginning of rice cultivation in the middle East. It is likely that the roots of the pilaf to be found in India where since ancient times there are similar rice, but vegetarian meals, obviously supplemented with meat already in ancient Persia. In favor of this, by the way, can speak universally preserved tradition tinting pilaf with saffron or turmeric. It is obvious that the principle of cooking spread from the East, particularly, was adopted and developed in Central Asia. In Tajikistan, pilaf is called the "oshi palov" - festive national dish. Recipes pilaf very much, I offer the most wide-spread classic recipe pilaf "one to one" or as it is called in Tajikistan, the Osh "Yak BA Yak". Recipe from the chef of the restaurant "KABOB HOUSE".
