  • After adding oil to the pot, fry the potatoes over low heat.
  • Carefully adjust the measure when adding the hot water. Add enough water to slightly raise the bulgur.
  • Cook the pilaf over medium heat until the water is absorbed. After cooking, close the lid of the pot and give the pilaf time to infuse. This will allow the bulgur to swell even more and the flavors to blend well.
