A main course that is as elegant as a dessert, the Date and Rice Pilaf features a unique combination of rice with dry fruits and nuts, enhanced with rose water, and garnished with fried onions and coriander. The cardamom flavour goes well with the mellow sweetness of this rice preparation, which combines wonderfully with spicy accompaniments.

Date and Rice Pilaf is a recipe where dates along with almonds and raisins are also used. Milk gives a nice wetness to this rice so it doesnt taste dry.
