A light plov without meat: rice, carrots, onion and sweet corn. Turmeric gives it a beautiful golden color.

Method

Rinse the rice in several changes of water until the water runs clear. Dice the onion, grate the carrots on a coarse grater and cut the bell pepper into strips.
Heat the oil in a kazan or a deep frying pan and fry the onion for 3–4 minutes, then add the carrots and fry for another 5 minutes.
Add the bell pepper and corn, sprinkle with turmeric, cumin and salt, stir and heat through for 2–3 minutes.
Spread the rice in an even layer without stirring and pour in 500 ml of hot water so that it covers the rice by 1 cm. Press a head of garlic into the center.
Cover with a lid and cook over low heat for 15–20 minutes, until the water has been absorbed.
Turn off the heat, let the plov rest, covered, for 10 minutes and stir gently.
