I do a lot of cooking for myself (it's far cheaper than eating out),
and one thing I like is pilau rice to accompany a good curry (or for
that matter a crap curry, such as the Tesco ones).
I used to use Knorr Pilau Rice Stock Cubes, which were simplicity
itself; 200ml of rice, 300ml of water, two stock cubes, and either a
knob of butter or a splash of olive oil; mix all together and nuke for
ten minutes.Unfortunately the bastards have discontinued the stock
cubes.
I've tried googling for pilau rice recipes, but all are over-
complicated (some require frying, a technique not available to me), or
call for saffron, which is Austrian-village expensive (#2.70 for 400ug
-- yes, *micro*grams not milligrams -- a whopping #6,750/kg; it would
probably be cheaper to use gold); or have some other drawback.
Anyone know a mixture of spices (I presume salt, turmeric and
cardamon, for a start) I can throw together, perhaps even in advance,
and use in the same quick-and-easy way I did the cubes?

Nope, pilau is definitely a bit more sophisticated than just using
basil (which IIRC gives a sort of spicy-lemon flavour to dishes, and
hence is used with tomato a lot; I'm surprised that ground coriander
seed, which gives a spicy-orange flavour, isn''t more often used this
way)...

That's because I am not able to find what is "pilau" in any dictionary.

Hi Bohus!
With Spices acquired, you can increase the tax-income.

What's the problem with frying?
Lethal allergy to Teflon?
Inability to lift a pan? :-)

Erm, yes, saffron is well known to be more expensive than gold.
That's why in the olden days if you adulterated your saffron with turmeric
they would burn your product and yourself at the stake.
Luckily a little saffron goes a long way.
You simply don't need more than a pinch for a heap of rice.
Mind you, it does rankle that the pinch of spice costs as much as half a
chicken!

I've got Sharwoods pilau rice stuff in a jar. You melt the stuff over the
rice in a frying pan, then add the water. It's reasonably tasty.
