Etli pilav

Etli pilav is a traditional rice dish. For this pilaf variety, the rice is cooked with onions and chunks of meat such as beef or lamb. Other ingredients include butter, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Once cooked, the pot is turned upside down and the dish is served on a large plate or a tray so that the onions and the meat will be on top, with the rice underneath. Etli pilav is typically served hot, then seasoned with salt and pepper. It's recommended to accompany the pilaf with sautéed eggplants or refreshing yogurt-based salads.
