How to cook Restaurant style Pilau Rice (BIR), nice and easy, delicious 

Really amazing recipe..

I'm a chef I can seem you now exactly wot you ars doing thanks mate hope you still at it 👍

I just found this recipe and made it today its really good my wife say it taste like the local Indian restaurant rice. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Nice

Was a chef for a long time, but always like to have a curry night at least once a week. The pilau rice was superb. I used long grain aged basmati (500g as I have to cook for friends as well !!) and 750ml water. Brought it to a boil, reduced the heat to Med/low and sealed. Within 10-12 mins it was just like yours, light, fluffy, aromatic. I like to cook garlic and oil separate for my own take on a garlic pilau. Half of my freezer is taken up with purées, base gravy, cooked chicken, home-made samosas and bhaji's. A lot of work and prep goes into the final dishes, but if you want BIR at its best it's definitely worth the effort. Great recipe, nice work.

😮😮

top notch, my fave Pilau Rice Recipe out there absolutely flawless !

Looks amazing! I will definately try it out.

Best Pilau - more authentic!

You make me DRIBBLE. my mouth is watering and I am moist now to eat all that you feed me. Thank you thank you iam very excited now and happy to eat all your recipe WELL DONE. you have cookbook in shop to buy?

Looks really good. I agree with you that rice is easy but I know so many people who have a problem cooking it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get pilau rice quite as I would like it so tried a different recipe today. Their video looked fine, although the spices didn't sound right to me. It tasted way off as I had sort of suspected hence me looking and finding your recipe. Your ingredients look much more authentic for a BIR style recipe. I'll be giving it a go tomorrow and will let you know how it goes.

I could probably/probably not, live on pilau rice

Sooo good👍👍👍

This recipe is perfect and it tasted incredible. Now I'm working my way through your channel and having a dinner party for the rice lol!

Such a great recipe. Cheers.

Fab, I'm trying this tomorrow :)

I made a korma with your base gravy recipe and it was amazing.

Great work Jonny 👍

Brilliant! Thank you 🙏 👌

It is perfect, give you a hint for the saffron, you should crush it fine and add few ice cubes to it and it gives the best color.

Hi, have tried several of your recipes and are very pleased with the results..delicious thank you. I am unfortunately gluten intolerant, do you have a recipe for gluten free naan bread. I have tried a coupe of recipes found on google, but so far they are very disappointing. Many thanks.

I’m going to cook this for my man this weekend

Sir could you please give some quick recipes for ifthar, Ramadhan is close.thanks

😋😋👌👌👌👌

😂😂❤

This looks amazing , which basmati rice do you use?

Thanks for this- My rice became little brown but yours stayed white- any particular reason? I used low fat butter instaed of Ghee!

Hi a very quick question Do you crack open the cardamon pods to release more flavout ? Best Regards

Hi Johnny, I’ve been to your restaurant several times! Can you please do a video on how to make the paneer fusion from the menu? I have moved away so unable to visit as frequently and have not been able to find anything similar! Thank you.

This looks amazing bro, I’m not great at cooking rice but defo Gana give this a go😀

Can you give water measurement in ml?

Is it best to use black or green cardamoms?

Do they use long grain in restaurants not basmati , why is that?

This looks amazing.. im rubbish at cooking rice but gonna give this recipe a go.. is there a lower fat alternative? Or is it nessecary to have the ghee and oil to that amount ?

Do you wash the rice first?

Just that it looked quite white and fluffy already. Is that after soaking for half hour and washing?

Ghee contains high concentrations of monounsaturated Omega-3s so it's not an unhealthy component.

Was looking forward to this instruction but your subtitles don’t give enough information. When you put the rice in, I have no idea what has been done to it before you added it to the pot, because I am deaf so have no volume. Please make your subtitles fully inclusive. Thank you.

Great channel. Is it 6 tbsp Ghee if not using vegetable oil?

Was the rice par boiled beforehand? Looks like it was?

Great vid. Quick question , u said for long grain rice use one cup and one and half cups of water , but in the vide the text popped up saying 4 cups of water. What one did u actually do :) just a bit confused Merry christmas and new year

Ghee is better for you than vegetable oil.

when i get pillau from the takeaway theres no onion in it or other bits. do they use pwdered? or maybe a SHAN rice spice mix?

Toomeric?

Rice:Water. One cup rice to "one and a half to two cups water". Huh? That's a huge difference. Checking after 12 minutes will reveal dramatically different degrees of doneness. Other than that, great video :-)

But how do you make it in 1 minute for customers in a takeaway?

Sorry to correct your pronunciation but it is not " pillow" rice but " pilauu " rice. Asians do not say "pillow" rice. I found that very off putting. Also your rice is far too light coloured as you did not brown the onions enough.

Don't mix measurements. It's a recipe for failure. Metric is best.

Why do you invoke a deity when cooking?

Nice

Love this recipe

Nice
