Plov is one of the most widespread dishes in Azerbaijan, with more than 40 different recipes. Plovs have different names depending on the main ingredients accompanying rice:: Kourma plov Mutton plov (with onion), Chilov plov, Bean plov (with fish), Sabzi Qovurma plov, Mutton plov, Toyug plov, Chicken plov, Shirin plov, Dried fruit plov, Syudli plov, Rice cooked (in milk), Sheshryanch plov, Six-color plov (eggs cooked "sunny side up" on a bed of fried green and white onions) 

Plov is cooked for guests to show respect and sympathy and also during special occasions like weddings, birthdays and other important family events, such as a farewell meal before a long journey. The dish is a very important part of a traditional Azeri wedding. Dancers in national costume typically set the plov alight and present the flaming dish to the bride and the groom in a ceremony that is often accompanied by big fire sparklers. The flame refers to the couple’s future life, and signifies success, friendship and warm family feelings. The rice represents wealth.

It is often said that there are more than 40 types of plov in Azerbaijan. The reality is that there are probably way more as each family will have its own version of each recipe.

In a traditional plov, long grain rice is steamed with saffron on top and a layer of golden crust called gazmag (or qazmaq) forms at the bottom.

Thank you for making this video. I live in Canada and my dad is Azeri. He is a single dad and I am trying to cook more heart foods. I am only 15 and our family speaks Russian so it made me feel welcomed to hear Russian language in the background, I also recognize some techniques that my mother taught me.Thank you so much again!❤️❤️

I am from Azerbaijan and never seen pilaf like this. I am sure it is yummy but this woman is definitely from a specific region that makes pilaf this way. I've tried different ways of pilaf in different regions of Azerbaijan but never seen this kind. I wonder what region she is from. Thanks for the video!🇦🇿

You can make gazmag from yougurt +egg+salt mixture, too, which is more delicious I think. We have different types of gazmag also

I went out to work in Azerbaijan for a few weeks and really enjoy the food I especially liked the Green sweet jam or chutney but I could never remember the name it also had small black seeds in there, can you help with the name.

Wait this makes no sense, I thought the meat is supposed to be added to the rice as part of the cooking process, not at the end, on the plate? + and shouldn't there be finely chooped carrots in this aswell??? very confused
