Masterpiece:
The rice they serve at Asian restaurants I've been to serve rice so sticky it's super easy to eat with chopsticks.

But then I like Turkish rice more.

mtmerrick:
I am not familiar with turkish rice.  :psyduck:

nekowafer:
Me either!

Masterpiece:
It's just a different way of preparing it. The Turkish pilaf (pilav in the original language) is prepared by first cooking the rice in butter, then adding boiling water and salt, lowering the cooker to the lowest setting and then keeping the lid on until the rice is done (the sweet spot is at 22 min). If you take the lid off too soon your rice is all mushy and awful, but if you do it right, the rice tastes super good and has a nice texture. In Turkey there's a saying that you have to cook rice 100 times badly until you get it right.

jwhouk:
So - this being a good German restaurant, did they serve schnitzel as a side dish?
