Uzbekistan

Again, going from memory here, as we ate this last Thursday....Plov, the national dish of Uzbekistan is similar to pilaff from Europe or biriyani from India. It is rice, lightly spiced with cinnamon, cumin, salt, chilli etc, and slow cooked with diced lamb and carrots. This was lovely, thank goodness, and we all enjoyed it alot. We did drizzle it with olive oil, which may not be very Uzbeki but really lifted the meal. Will be making this again.
