hand-picked rice
Pilaf is a standard Xinjiang cuisine. Pork pilaf is a very nutritious food. Mutton, onions, carrots and rice are all supplements containing multiple vitamins. In particular, carrots are called small ginseng and are very nutritious. Rice made with such raw materials is of course nutritious.
There is also a touching legend about pilaf. Legend has it that more than a thousand years ago, there was a man named Abu Airi. Dr. Ibisina, in his later years, was very weak and took a lot of medicines to no avail. Later, he studied a rice and used a diet therapy. He chose mutton, carrots, onions, clear oil, sheep oil and rice with water and salt, and then braised them over low heat. This kind of rice has the characteristics of color, taste and aroma, and can arouse people's appetite. So he ate a small bowl in the morning and evening. Half a month later, his body gradually returned to health. People around him were very surprised and thought that he had eaten some panacea. Later, he passed on this "prescription" to everyone, and it became the common practice among Uyghurs today.
