Pilau Rice Spice Mix, or Pilaf, is a traditional blend of whole and ground spices to make the Indian side dish pilau rice. Cinnamon and cardamom impart a sweet taste, whereas clove and cumin impart wonderful earthy notes to the dish. The colour of the rice is sunshine yellow due to the turmeric within the spice mix.
A great quality of Pilau Rice is that every country has its own version, each being slightly different. You’ll find it served around the world, cropping up in Middle Eastern, Central Asian and Mediterranean cuisine.
Typically, the Indian versions contain extra ingredients such as raisins, sultanas and cashews. The dish is often served alongside a curry for lunch or dinner. The best rice to use for Pilau rice is Basmati rice – the long grains and aromatic fragrance are perfect.
Pilau rice can be prepared with various additions, including vegetables like peas, carrots, or bell peppers, as well as meats like chicken, lamb, or shrimp. The choice of ingredients can be customised based on personal preference or regional variations.
