Pilaf with Ribs
Description
I learned this recipe for cooking plov with ribs as a child from my mother, as it was our signature Sunday dish that marked the end of our hard workweek. Since then, plov has become my favorite meal, always associated with family and home cooking. Now I want to share this simple plov recipe with ribs with you, and I hope you'll enjoy it. For me, pork ribs have always been the ideal choice for plov because they give it incredible richness and a special flavor (I'm not particularly fond of lamb ribs due to their distinct smell). Even children happily eat this delicious plov, not to mention adults—plates are empty within minutes. If you've never cooked plov with ribs before, you definitely should try it, as it's very easy to make.
