Can you tell me a good recipe for Persian rice potatoes then?
And what about fucking Risotto?

Plenty of people know about pilaf and persian rice, dude. I make persian rice (yes, with nice crispy tah deeg) all the time. And Zereshk Polow is one of my all time favorite foods, which I make pretty regularly, and I'm as white as they come. I ALWAYS prefer basmati rice - based dishes. Aged basmati is the elder god tier rice, it's the one rice I'm never without.
Point being, IDK what backwater you live in, but there is multitudes of people in the states that eat that and know those kind of rice dishes on a regular basis.
What the fuck are you on about? I live in the most homogenous state ever ( utah) and even people here don't eat plain white rice. At the very least they will throw a can of salsa in it.

Fuck you shill, I watched Dragon ball
love the crispy tadig.

So, eating instead like a western peasant. Seriously, taters are the lowest form of starch. Why do you think the only tasty variations involve frying the shit out of them?
a) there are lots of people from western asia who have migrated to western countries
b) there's a foodwishes video about it
pretty good case for people in the west knowing about that method
and don't get me started on the fact that every british person on the planet has had at least 100 pilafs in their life up to this point

I don't know what third world, shithole you live in but we even have it in our microwave meals over here.
I literally never ate plain white rice. It's so fucking bland and disgusting.

Literally reheated cold stale rice by dumping it in the sauce in the pan after cooking teriyaki steak once. It was delicious but eating steak with rice was weird as fuck.
tbqh senpai, bread eaters should be rounded up and placed in concentration camps
Persian rice is white
If anything the curries used by Japanese and Indians add more flavor than what Persians do which is just make it crispy at the bottom and add saffron to basmati rice

>what is paella
>what is risotto
>what is safron rice
>what is jasmine rice
only to begin with
and why the fuck would you add a side dish to a side dish like in potato rice?

Rice is a shit tier grain in the first place.

slice up potatoes and put them on the bottom of the pot with some butter or oil when you make rice
when your rice is done, wa la, there is a layer of crispy potatoes on the bottom
turn it upside-down for maximum aesthetics

The same flyover shithole you live in where you can't properly reply to posts. Did you type that manually or something?
