what is pilav
Pilav (Pilaf). Pilav refers to a dish of grains (often rice)stewed in a brother, often times with meat of vegetables. Pilav comes in just about every shape and size in Istanbul. From the highest class restaurants, to the lonely street carts, this staple dish reinvents itself in every conceivable way.his is a delicious and cheap street eat that I highly recommend. In small pilav restaurants, rice is often served on a plate with an optional topping like salad, liver, chicken, beans, or any combination.
