What is Tomato Rice with Sautéed Meat?
Tomato Rice with Sautéed Meat is a Turkish-style pilaf of cooked rice combined with tomato and browned, cooked meat. The meat may be prepared ahead, and the choice and amount of meat and cooking fat vary from kitchen to kitchen.
The tomato brings gentle sweetness and acidity, while the rice stays tender and the meat adds a savoury, hearty bite. In Turkey it can be served as a filling main dish or alongside other dishes; plain yogurt, cacık or a crisp salad make fresh accompaniments. It provides most of its energy from rice, with protein from the meat and fat from cooking. For a lighter serving, use less cooking fat and pair it with plenty of salad.
