This is very common Turkish dish. My mom was cooking all the time.
Ingredients
-4 leeks
-1 carrot
-1 lemon, squeezed
-1tsp salt
-1tsp sugar
-1/4 cup rice, washed
-1 cup hot water
-1/3 cup olive oil
Preparation Method
Cut the tops of the leek and wash them well. Cut them into diagonal slices. Set them aside.
Peel the carrot and cut it vertically into four pieces, then slice them as big as a half finger.
Put half of the olive oil in a pot and saute the carrot slices first. Add sugar and then the leeks. Stir them well and add the lemon juice and cover the pan. Cook it over medium heat for 15 minutes and then add rice, water and salt in it. Bring the heat to the lowest and cook it until the rice cooks. After it is cooked, let it cool in the pan. And finally drizzle the rest of the olive oil on it before serving.
