He is a great teacher and I appreciate what he's doing. Great job 👌 you are great.👍👍
God bless you for sharing your
Culinary skills. The meanies dont
Like to share. You are a chef of
High calibre. Well done Chef. Waiting to try your pilau. Niloo
So true i will try this rice on my channel soon
I want to marry him.
You are not mean in sharing your knowledge.Be blessed.
I’ve been bumbling along with my version of pilau rice for years and then I watched this - I’ve just cooked it and it is perfect. Thank you so much, I learned more in 5 minutes than I have in 5 years 👍👍

Same as
Very nice brother. I’m a professional chef of 37 years and have enjoyed cooking various cuisines.
I like the way that you are always cleaning as you go. This is what I learned from my college tutors.
Start the job, finish the job, clean up from the job.
Well done👍🏽
thank youpaul wilson

Hi Paul,
You have given him many good compliments, but do you think he really used a good kitchen grievance to make Rice Polo? in the first instance he used his long spoons in a pan with a teflon layer and that is very dangerous, secondly he used the pan of onions which has been banned for years. If you are a top chef then you should have seen long ago that the method he uses is not the one desired by a top chef. Or is a top chef only a top chef in England? Sorry to say, but French President Mitterand once said that the English are not good cooks. and Maybe you're going to say we have a top chef like Olliver. hahahah. Many greetings from the south of Provence France. 🥱🙏🏼🫣 😕
@@philanderton22 Teflon ? in a cast iron pot ? ? who's actually banned cooking onions in a pan ? ? I'm glad your'e not cooking for me !!!
You can really see he is a good lad, and his heart is really in what he does, he is my favourite chef on youtube
I would marry him.
The pillao rice looks great.👍 But please don't keep the handle towards your body but turn it on the side while cooking. By mistake your hand may touch the handle and it will overturn. I got burnt accidently. So take care. Also don't serve hot food in plastic containers.
Good luck to you. Thanks for sharing your favourite recipes. God bless you. 🙏🙏🙏
I love your channel..Latif 's Inspired.
Yeah he is a good lad but the rice he is making is weirdly strange...

344 dislikes?????? who on earth does that? this guy is amazing and sharing restaurant secrets what the hell is not to like someone please explain.
Other chefs/Restraunts who are jealous?
Right! Who couldn't like this!
Who knows my man. No matter how good the content there will always be people who hate. Says more about the. Than the video they dislike
Awesome. I'll try this recipe. Blessings
Treza some people must like to be negative and make wrong...eff them!
I've been cooking for 20 years (and more) and my Achilles heel has always been basmati rice. Sure, I can cook it and it's perfectly edible but actually cooking it this fluffy where every grain is separate just never seemed to work out. Your method of frying it for much longer than I usually do helped massively. I made the best Pilau I have ever made as a result of this recipe and am so glad you unlocked the door for me on that. Thank you Latif.
Bangladeshis are the best cooks in the world, of course ;)
I did this method on accident recently (fry longer, cook with lid off longer), and it totallllllly worked for basmati rice! Normally when I make it in huge quantities, it’s hard to get it cooked evenly. But this did the trick 👌
I had some idea that you never stir rice, seens that wrong
HE IS AMONG THE TOP TEN CHEFS I SUBSCRIBE TO ON THIS PLATFORM. HE IS A WONDERFUL TEACHER AND I APPRECIATE AND ADMIRE HIS EXPERTISE.
THE COMPLEXITY OF INDIAN CUISINE IS LIKE A JEWEL..EVERYTIME YOU PARTAKE OF IT, EACH AND EVERY TIME IT IS DIFFERENT. IT IS MESMERISING AND IN ITS MYSTERY IT KEEPS YOU COMING BACK FOR MORE.
Looks tasty, although few misconceptions ghee is in fact better for our bodies than once perceived. I'd certainly substitute it for the veg/sunflower oil but use moderately as ghee is packed full of flavour so little goes long way. Also the basmati rice doesnt require toasting for so long it breaks the kernels even though drained, rice takes on flavour when it's on dum/left on steam. To bring out aroma of spice you may pre fry all the spices and then add the rice, itl keep the basmati grains nice and long.
It always amazes me how Indian food makes the absolute most of the most humble ingredients. This is basically rice, onions and peas and I'm sure it tastes 10 times that.
Makeing the rice is a process not just rice onions and peas. "if you want the flavor!"
@@ustand2186 Absolutely, I'm not a bad cook myself! I find making Indian that 9 times out of 10 I just make veggie as there is SO MUCH flavor in the combo spices. I love meat too. All about the feel though, I find accurate recipes kinda take the creative out of it.
and garlic, ginger, coriander, cumin, fennel and salt. Far from just rice and onions.
At home we make it all in one pot, and it tastes super. I think the idea is to brown the onions, not glaze and deglaze them with browing agents like red wine, or soy sauce etc. but just wait till onions cook up to that colour itself. It makes a world of difference to the taste.
@Free Speech you are right..Indian food is no good. It has too much of spices in it to give that great favur that one needs to enjoy in good food. By the way Have you tried chinese phoo dumplings. There are different flavors of phoo used I am told.. For example human ( British, Chinese , Europa, etc.) pig what not. You should try them ..you will definitely like it.
I never knew this level of love went into rice. This is how you make rice that is a meal on it's own.
Thank you Latif (and Alex!!) - love your simple no-frills approach.
Apart from beautiful cooking, I just love how you keep a clean kitchen.
I've just watched a few of your videos and your sweetness shines through every one of them. Thank you. Stay Blessed!
You're a genuinely likeable lad, and I'm really enjoying your style and content.
Agree
Love the way you cook...absolute delight to watch..I'm mix..creole and Indian and have cooked almost same way but your ingredients are what makes it unique ..keep it going from Cape Town South Africa
Indeed sir, what a wonderful way to share the making of your soul food, arohanui from New Zealand.
Me too
Just made this for my family and we loved it! I'll try more of your recipes now. Thank you.
Another ‘must do’ for me this week. That is the most beautiful looking rice, I have ever seen. Thank you Latif.
Love rice dishes . the saffron in this makes it look amazing
Sick vid bro! Genuinely helpful and unfussy guide to making a dish I manage to screw up constantly. Just watched this and made pro rice!
You're a proper likable bloke and your recipes are spot on! Thank you :)
Top guy clear instructions knows his stuff A+++
Latifs videos are so clear and crisp, they make everything so Mouth-watering!
I'll definitely be trying this. Thanks so much. I love your tidy organized kitchen 😍
WOW! Such care and integrity in your cooking.
Just love your polished British accent which makes watching your cooking style so appealing😊. The rice looked super yum😋
Thanks for the videos, very informative.
The kitchen is so spotless and germs free the dish is fantastic
He is a very friendly chef! Thanks for all the lovely recipes.
You have to like a guy, who has a ' favourite cast iron pot'. Great channel.
Doesn't every one?
You can’t beat a cast iron pan. My favourite is my SKK sauté pan with removable handle, it’s just hob top sex!🥰
@@sb7589 Yes! Is SKK a German company? They make fine products.
Paul Reedy, Yes SKK is German, I have a selection of their pans, they do also honour their lifetime guarantee which I used when I burnt a pan and they refurbished it for free!
@@sb7589 SB, thanks so much for this info. I have and use SKK stainless steel tableware from the 1960s; their video says the factory was started in 1985. That must be when they expanded their earlier line of production. I also wonder what SKK stands for in German. Thanks again.
Thank you for allowing us to see an amazing chef add that saffron afterwards. Makes us home cooks feel a little better
I hadn’t realised just how much work is involved in making the dish. It looks and sounds great. What a great looking kitchen you have.
It does look amazing, must give this a go. Thank you for this.
Wow, awesome mate! I subscribed, looking forward to making this. Cheers!
Yes! Been waiting for this 🙌🏻
Thank you Latif! This has transformed my rice cooking! I cheated and finished it in the rice cooker after frying but it came out perfect, separate grains, no sticking and a great aromatic flavour
Brilliant Latif, great videos and you can tell the food is made with love, which is why it looks and tastes so good. Looking forward to many more, all the best 👍
Thank you Latifs for the Pilau Rice video - I was looking out for a special recipe, which you have so kindly shared with us. I think we are the ones who should feel blessed with all your cooking knowledge you are so very kindly sharing with us.
you watch these videos like religiously. Gay boy!
I made it! And it was delicious. Also some of the other recipes, thanks!
Thanks, Mom & Dad!
I was born in Birmingham, UK to parents that loved "exotic" foods... And trying new recipes. Trips to what's now known as the Curry Triangle were fairly common, this was the early to mid 1980s just before the areas' fame rocketed, nationally and then internationally. The restaurants were very sparsely decorated, plastic gingham table cloths on pasting tables, the chairs were chained to the floor! No cutlery, the food was served from iron bowls and eaten traditional style; with naan bread (some a whopping 4-foot long). No alcohol, just jugs of water on each table with disposable cups. It was heaven...
Thanks India, thanks Pakistan, Bangladesh, from wherever these guys came from, they taught us so much. Even British shops started stocking Asian food stuffs, most young folk won't remember the days before "Super" Markets, before then we only had seasonal British food and some European stuff that no one knew how to cook. Curry changed everything, curry changed Britain for the better.
Keep on cooking and teaching, you're doing a wonderful job. Good luck.
Found this yesterday and made it today… BEST Recipe……I have ever made!!!! THANK YOU!!! Blessings on blessings!❤️🤍❤️🤍
You have so many awesome looking recipes that I want to try!! Thank you for sharing your talent for cooking and your recipes! Please keep sharing your videos! 😊🥰👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️♥️♥️
What a great dish, love all of Latif’s recipes, they all so straightforward and tasty!!
I love it. This man has that "mum's one more spoon" when serving the rice! He stole my heart.
What did u put in the rice i didn't see at
You truly ARE a kitchen God, Chef Latif! !!!!!!! the best Pullao I've ever had!!!!
You make everything seem so easy and it looks wonderful absolutely delicious thank you
Latif, you are a Master Chef my friend.. This is fantastic viewing. I have learnt so much from your channel. Outstanding video, as usual.
MasAllah
Love from Turkey 🇹🇷 and Denmark 🇩🇰
I love this recipe and everybody that I've served it to has complimented me so thank you Latif this is really the best pilau recipe. I simply love your style and thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. Very inspirational and makes one drool.
Just amazingly lovely I never knew of this version of pilau rice. Thank you for this. Definitely going try this right away
When I make pilau rice I put in cardamom, cloves, star anise, half a cinnamon quill, bay leaves, saffron, or a pinch of turmeric if you can't afford saffron but saffron is best.
Martin Eleven ..that is how you make pilo rice my friend. Those are the main ingredients.
I was wondering about that. But the whole spices I am accustomed to seeing in biryani, not pillau.
We always use aromatic whole spices in basic pilau along with garlic ginger. Lots of bengali/sylheti cooks on YT for home cooking.
Cracking cooking, Latif! I'm definitely going to try this dish! 👍🏽
You have such a special aura. I can see you are a great chef and an all round good guy! You most definitely inspire me! Keep up the great work!
Latif, your the best pal, would love taste all the food you make,
Simply lovely, simple beautiful 👍👍🍺🍺
We struggle with our rice so thanks for this, This will definitely help and so i can teach Ava and we can then do a rice video soon. :)
SENSATIONAL!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Tastes amazing.
I have cooked 2 of your curries tonight! They are amazing and everyone is happy. Thankyou.

You sir are a legend! Thank you... I wish UA-cam had a way of smelling your food! 👍😎🍽👨🏽🍳
Looks delicious - liked and subscribed. I look forward to trying this and other dishes. Thanks for sharing your insight and experience.
I’ve just made one of the best rice dishes I’ve ever tasted using this recipe ❤ I ate my portion and have to confess I went for seconds, thirds, fourths…. And that’s not like me! Thank you Latif for your recipe and for sharing your passion with us!
Great channel you have here mate. I really appreciate your meticulous cooking style and your meticulous presentation. Keep up the good work.
Thank you latif easy way to do it i love it is look delisiuos
Omg cooked while following and used the same amount of salt, it was perfect, thank you!!!
Jazakalla for the recipe iam going to definitely try this way and I am sure the end,result will be good. Slmz south Africa.
🌟
Easy following recipes I’ve been looking for. Well done can’t wait to try your food.
Probably my favourite chef on UA-cam
Awwww mate!!!...this is the BEST rice ever, I’ve never managed to make decent rice. You’re a true legend, thank you sooooo much. The peas add a little sweetness and that saffron just tops it off....well done brother!👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻
I lurve pilau rice, couple of variations i tasted when in the north east were star anise, cinnamon~ just a dash. Bless you, keep up the brilliant work. Much love from Australia
Nice one brother
I’ve tried a few different techniques and recipes for cooking perfect rice, Persian, etc.. this one came out the best! Cooked perfect! 👌 Thanks for sharing!
I like mine with tiny florets of broccoli or finely cubed stalk, instead of peas. Nice method :)
This chap is wonderful and helped me appreciate the wonderful use of spices....love indian food
Latif,
Tried this recipe and this is the best rice I've ever made! I love pilau rice and this is excellent, so authentic. I've also made the base stock sauce which again turned out very good! Added to some Tandoori chicken cooked on the bbq which was the best meal I've had this year! I'll be trying the Korma next (to get my children eating it). Having Punjabi in-laws I do eat a lot of traditional home cooking which is great and very tasty but the classic Indian restaurant food is just that bit more elaborate and special!
Top quality videos. Keep up the great work!
That looks incredible!I can’t wait to try this!
not seen this method before ,can't wait to try. looks amazing
This looks amazing. Every time I've had Pilau rice it's just been Basmati with drops of food colouring - I've been ripped off lol Good job sir.
You get what you pay for, Indian restaurants actually do a lot more actual cooking work than your average high St chain restaurants, yet charge less. Chicken and fries served on a wooden board in Wildwood restaurants took barely any work, yet people are willing to pay more for that than an actual dish someone has stood over and cooked in am Indian restaurant. Indian cooking is intensive, but people don't want to pay for it, rice is like 2 or 3 pounds in an Indian takeaway, you can't expect more than a very basic pilau for that price
@@solstar7928 Do you know how to spell pretentious much??
I’m so going to try this. Thanks my dear. Any chance of showing us how chicken chaat puri is cooked? Pretty please
Nice and genuine! I appreciate your little tips and the condiments presentation.
Amazing recipe brother i did this today! My family loved it! Thank you so much.
My arteries and my taste buds had a meeting and, having beaten my arteries into submission, the taste buds are victorious by two falls and a knockout.
Obsidian Dwarf, way to go!!!
nice funny comment , smart
HAAAaaaaaa!!!!!!! Good one!!!
Loving this channel. It's inspired me to give pilau rice a go. Keep up the good work.
Now that was good. I’ll be giving that a go. Thank you Latif.
Brilliant! So much better than even local restaurants 👍
Hi Latif, I think most recent thinking would say ghee is healthier than vegetable oil. The problem with vegetable oil is that they spoil (oxidise) quickly and thus are harmful when consumed, not to mention lower smoking points. As ever, look to what our ancestors used in such instances. Solid at room temp is a good general rule (coconut, butter, lard), as well as clarified butter which can be cooked to a high temp. Not to mention, as you know yourself, they taste better.
Amen Barry.!!!
Vegetable oils are cheap and very unhealthy. They promote inflammation, oxidisation and causes arterial disease!
We all need to move away from the BS that the government has been feeding us this last 30-40 years, it has made our population very sick. We do indeed need to return to the methods of our ancestors, they were far healthier!
Yes, it is much healthier to cook with natural butter / ghee than any oil. The only oil that isn’t bad is real virgin olive oil. Other than that, stay away from oil as much as possible!
Chef, nothing wrong with ghee, everything in moderation, I have been cooking Indian for over 30 years and I still find inspiration from chefs like you and I will definitely do your pilau rice as well as all the other recipes, it is unusual for an Indian chef to share the secrets but this is excellent, pity there isn't a smell app on my computer as I watch this I am tempted to get in the kitchen and start cooking at some ungodly hour! In Teesside where I live there is an amazing Indian food store where I can get all the ingredients for my store cupboard, mind you if I come to your restaurant will you give me the recipe for you red masala sauce LOL!. Keep the videos coming !!!!!!
Why is it unusual for Indian Chefs to share their cooking secrets?? Is it a culture thing?? Thank You
@@tormentedsoul7852 Oh yes, years ago they would not give you any idea of the recipes !
@@terrycapewell1717 how's that different from English cooks years ago? I think every family recipe is handed down as a secret of sorts...a loving secret for your dearest to enjoy.
That’s a nice pilau. Bravo! I’ll definitely try ur tips
Thank you from your friends across the pond for sharing your amazing cooking! I didn't get turned on to Indian cooking until later in life, but now I can't get enough! Making this today! Cheers!
Well that has to be the best, went down a storm in our house, I didn't have any saffron so added half tsp turmeric but will have saffron for next time, Well Done great teacher.
I did the same thing today and it was still lovely 😊
You can use turmeric powder, or marigolds petals or dandelion petals for colour
@@felicitywoodruffe4087 awesome!! Thanks for the info. I now approve of my wife planting marigolds in the garden.
Just a suggestion, Latif.
Maybe text on the screen confirming things like cooking times, pan temperature, oven temperature, etc. might be an idea.
Also, maybe writing the recipe in the description might help, too?
Great channel. Thank you!
My Dad had his own restaurant but got sick before he could teach me. So watching you, and bettering my cooking skills is very helpful :)
He needs just for himself always forgetful when it comes to ingredients
Mahmood Ullah stop hating
Looks so yummy can’t wait to try this Thank You
Mal99ify That isn’t hating. It’s a good comment for anyone cooking. Everyone needs reminders.
The recipe is there just look. Push the down arrow at the top at opening an scroll down
Keep going, you are appreciated, and you have an open and warm personality.I have to do this myself.
Lovely, thanks for sharing all the tips. My favourite kind of food.
I could use one of those chef spoons for eating cereal in the morning! Looks great latif!!
Inspiring me. I'm cooking this right now actually!!
Is it nice
Please keep going!!!! I completely love this stuff!!
I am impressed with the method you use, the recipe, AND your cleanliness. We notice those things:)
Keep up the good work. In a declining and struggling industry this is the sort of injection which is required to inspire the generations to come. There needs to be more people doing what you're doing. All the best bro! 😎
Made this pilau rice today mate and it was absolutely brilliant 👍🏻 won’t make it any other way now. The onions definitely set it off too .. went great with your Chicken Tikka Masala. Keep up the great work.
I'm excited about this Rice Dish. Can't wait to give it a go here in Detroit, Michigan. Thank You Chef Latif for your content and your videos. Directions are spot on. 👨🏽🍳
I made this rice dish last night. I halved the quantities because it was just for me and my wife. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. My wife said it was the best rice she has eaten in her life! It was really really good. We ate it with squid curry, cachumber and poppadoms. Fantastic! Thank you for a truly great recipe.
Latif, you are a star! I just love you - thanks so much - the only thing I would say, could you write down some timings too?
What a wonderful young man- an inspirational cook. You feel his passion. Food looks gorgeous. I bet he's a great friend to have too.a real British gentleman.
Thanks Latif that was great, I watched your naan bread tutorial - I'm going to try both of these as they are basics that you can start with.
Wow!! New style looks great
I just found your channel. Thank you for sharing. Loving the recipes and the tips. It all looks so yummy 😋
