Kenyan Swahili Beef Pilau is one of the exceptions when it comes to this blog seeing as my intention was to shed light on other recipes other than Kenyan ones. Pilau is undoubtedly hands down one of my all-time favourite meals. Additionally, I make it in a different way with several elements which makes it worth your while. Pilau is to Kenyans what biryani is to Indians.

Steps to make Beef pilau with kachumbari:

1. Clean and cut beef to pieces, not very small. Put in a sufuria with little salt and water, boil until tender
2. In a large sufuria, heat oil. Add onions and saute till translucent. Add garlic ginger paste and pilau spice and saute. Stirring constantly so they don't burn
3. Add meat, excluding any soup if available. You can also add tomatoes and let cook, stirring occasionally. When cooked add tomato paste and allow to cool for a minute or two
4. Add the cube and water. Allow to come to a simmer. Rinse rice and add, stir well and adjust salt. Allow to simmer until rice is well cooked and all water is dried up.
5. For those who use charcoal jiko, we like to cover the sufuria for a while adding a little charcoal on top so everything dries up well. It also creates a good top layer (ukoko).
6. For the kachumbari, slice onions thinly and wash them in warm salty water or use vinegar if you have. Pour away the water and rinse again using fresh water
7. Mix onions with sliced tomatoes. Squeeze half lemon juice, sprinkle a little salt and mix well.
8. Serve your pilau with a side of kachumbari. Best eaten using hands

Additionally, I make it in a different way with several elements which makes it worth your while. Pilau is to Kenyans what biryani is to Indians. No celebration is complete without it. From weddings to parties, holidays to festivals, pilau is an absolute must for all special occasions. Kenya's diversity reflects on its cuisine too.
