👩‍🍳 Instructions (The AI's Game Plan)

🎯 Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

  1. 1

    In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes.

    ⏱️ 7 min (ish)
    AI Wisdom: Vegetables should be translucent and fragrant.
  2. 2

    Add the rice to the saucepan. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes until the rice is lightly toasted.

    ⏱️ 3 min (ish)
    AI Wisdom: Rice grains should turn slightly opaque.
  3. 3

    Pour in the hot broth, add salt, and pepper. Stir well. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.

    ⏱️ 20 min (ish) 🌡️ Low
    AI Wisdom: Avoid lifting the lid while simmering to ensure proper cooking.
  4. 4

    Once cooked, remove the saucepan from heat. Let the pilaf sit, covered, for 5 minutes to steam. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.

    ⏱️ 5 min (ish)
    AI Wisdom: Steaming allows the rice grains to firm up and become fluffy.
