We prepare all the ingredients for cooking rice with minced meat. Minced meat can be used in different ways: chicken, pork, beef or even mixed. Minced pork was used in this recipe.
We wash the rice several times under running water, after which the ode should become almost transparent. Pour clean water into the pan and put it on the fire. When the water boils, salt the boiling water and pour in the washed rice. Stir the rice and cook until it is ready for about 25 minutes. Rice can be slightly cooked, as it will still "ripen" when stewed in a frying pan together with minced meat. The finished rice is thrown into a colander and washed under warm water.
Peel the onion, rinse it under running water and cut it into cubes. Transfer the chopped onion into a frying pan, pour in vegetable oil and fry until soft over medium heat for 5-7 minutes.
Carrots are washed, cleaned, and grated on a coarse grater. Transfer to the already soft onion, reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Carrots, as well as onions, should become soft.
Add the minced meat to the soft passioned vegetables and, stirring constantly, fry the minced meat over low heat until the minced meat changes color, it will take about 10 minutes.
Then add turmeric to taste and boiling water, mix, cover the pan with a lid and continue to simmer for another 15-20 minutes. It is better to regulate the amount of boiling water according to your feelings, since different varieties of rice absorb water in different ways when stewing. You may need from 50-100 ml.
After the time has elapsed, add boiled rice to the pan, season with salt and ground black pepper, mix and simmer for another 8-10 minutes. During this time, the rice should fully "ripen".
If desired, for a bright aroma, you can add your favorite spices, and for a beautiful yellow color, you can add saffron, curry or turmeric.
