In most cases, this formulation of the question itself will surprise any housewife: we are accustomed to the fact that pilaf is prepared only from special types of rice.
However, sometimes it is worth moving away from the usual culinary standards and trying something new and memorable.
For example, the online publication BelNovosti's expert on culinary issues, chef Yulia Arkhipova, found out the answer to the question of whether it is possible to make pilaf from buckwheat.
What is the correct answer to this question?
As it turns out, there are no obstacles to making pilaf based on buckwheat. Yes, the taste of the dish will be unusual and even strange at first, but it has a lot of advantages.
First of all, such pilaf is much healthier: the chemical composition of buckwheat is superior to that of rice. Secondly, you will discover new flavor combinations.
The technique for preparing the dish is no different.
You just need to keep the correct proportions. For half a kilo of meat, it is recommended to take one and a half glasses of cereal, five glasses of water, one piece of carrot and onion, three cloves of garlic, vegetable oil and salt with a set of spices.
