Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by rinsing 2 cups of parboiled rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- Transfer the rinsed rice to a pot and add 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5-7 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of Greek yogurt, 2 beaten eggs, and 1/4 cup of oil. Whisk until uniform.
- Gently stir in 1/4 teaspoon of saffron soaked in a tablespoon of warm water into the yogurt mixture.
- Carefully fold the parboiled rice into the yogurt mixture using a spatula until evenly coated.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish and transfer the rice mixture, pressing down gently.
- Bake for approximately 45 minutes until the top is golden brown and crispy.
- Once baked, let the dish cool for about 10 minutes, then cut into squares and serve warm.
