Plov Recipe

In a heavy dutch oven pot, sear the meat and drain any excess foam. Rinse if necessary. Pour 4 cups of water over the beef and simmer for 1 hour until tender.

Remove beef and drain the water into a measuring cup. Add additional water to make 4 cups of water in total. Set aside.

Wipe clean pot and add oil, carrots and onion. Sauté for 15 minutes over medium-high heat. Bring the beef pieces back into the pot and add spices. Mix thoroughly.

Top with rice and a head of garlic. Pour reserved water from the beef over the rice and lightly shake to avoid any stirring. Bring everything to a light boil then cover and simmer for 30 minutes covered.
