\begin{recipe}{Pilafi / Pilaf / Pilau}{Serves 2}{40 minutes}
2+
\freeform This is a Turkish-inspired variant of a common middle eastern dish; this is a personal adaptation of a recipe I grew up with as a child that my yaya would cook
3+
\freeform Spice quantities are estimates and should be used to taste, they resemble average ratios I personally use at an estimated quantity
4+
5+
\Ing{0.5 Brown onions}
6+
\Ing{3 cloves of Garlic}
7+
Finely chop the onion and garlic, and set aside in a small dish
8+
9+
\Ing{2 tbsp of Butter}
10+
Melt the butter in a saucepan over high heat, until the butter starts to brown. Once browning, pour in the onion and garlic and stir for 1 minute or until fragrant
11+
12+
\Ing{0.5 tbsp of Turmeric}
13+
\Ing{1 tbsp of Cumin}
14+
\Ing{1 tbsp of Smoked Paprika}
15+
\Ing{4 Bay leaves}
16+
\Ing{1 cup Basmati rice}
17+
Add spices and rice to the pot and stir until mixed thoroughly, taking care not to break the bay leaves. Leave to cook for 1 minute
18+
19+
\Ing{1 cup of Chicken stock}
20+
Pour in the chicken stock and stir until rice is evenly distributed in the pot. Once near a boil, place the lid on the saucepan and switch to a low heat. Leave to cook for 20 minutes
21+
22+
\newstep
23+
Turn off the heat, remove the lid from the pot, and stir to fluff the rice. Leave to sit for 5 minutes then serve after removing the bay leaves
24+
25+
26+
27+
\freeform The following is an optional side that can be served with the pilafi. The chicken can be replaced with vegetarian alternatives.
28+
29+
\Ing{2 Chicken thigh fillets}
30+
Cut the chicken into small 2cm cubes or similar, and place into a mixing bowl
31+
32+
\Ing{0.25 cups of Mayonnaise (or enough to coat)}
33+
\Ing{1 tbsp of Cumin}
34+
\Ing{1 tbsp of Smoked Paprika}
35+
\Ing{0.25 tbsp of Oregano}
36+
\Ing{0.25 tbsp of Turmeric}
37+
Add the mayo and spices to the bowl, then evenly coat the chicken with the mixture
38+
39+
\Ing{Oil (Olive preferred)}
40+
In a large fry pan, heat the oil and add the chicken. Cook while turning the chicken frequently until the chicken is well cooked. Estimate ~15 minutes.
41+
42+
\newstep
43+
Remove from the pan, and place on-top of the plated pilafi
