2. heat oil. add onion and garlic and cook until softened.
3. Add the rice and cook for 2-3 min. stir, stir, stir.
5. After this is done, remove from heat and stir in pine nuts. Then place a kitchen towel over the pan, and the lid back on top. Let it sit there about 10 min to dry out.

Cornelius, this is what wikipedia says about pilaf: is a dish in which a grain, such as rice or cracked wheat, is browned in oil, and then cooked in a seasoned broth. it sounds like we appropriately pilaffed.
ReplyDeleteI'm sooo gonna make this (with vegetable broth though, I am sure it will taste the same!)
