    Afghani Pulao Recipe

    Ingredients:
    1 large onion chopped, chicken or mutton cubed, salt, ground black pepper, 2 carrots grated, half a fistful of raisins, basmati rice and zeera (cumin seeds)

    Directions:
    Fry one coarsely chopped onion in oil until it is golden brown.
    Remove onion and grind to a rough pulp.
    Use the same oil to brown the lamb/chicken pieces.
    Add a cup or so of water, salt and pepper, simmer til tender.
    Remove the meat, and add the ground onion to the stock. Cook until 1 cup of stock remains.
    Grate 2 carrots and cook them in oil until brown. Add raisins and fry til plump. Drain and set aside.
    Parboil the rice (boil until al dente - do not completely cook the rice!!) and drain the rice. Place the rice into a large pan.
    Sprinkle zeera (cumin seeds). Pour the meat stock over it and stir.
    Layer the meat and half of the carrot-raisin mixture over rice.
    Cover the pan tightly and place it in a hot over for 40 mins.
    Sprinkle the rest of carrot-raisin mixture on top and serve.
