The chef has asked me

厨师要求我

to make a dish to complement the lamb for the new year's feast.

让我为节庆做一道主菜以外的菜

I've cooked a lot of places in my time but this, this beats it!

我以前在很多地方都做过菜，但这一次更有意义

I want to use local ingredients but with my Chinese style of cooking.

I'm making my version of a very famous Uyghur dish called polo.

我正在做一道我自己版本的非常著名的维族菜“手抓饭”

This is rice pilaf flavoured with onion, fine strips of carrot,

这是一种肉饭，放上了洋葱和胡萝卜条

dried fruit and nuts.

干果，坚果

Add a little bit of water just boiling here,

放一些水让它滚起来

which I'll flavour with some saffron that I got at the market.

通常我还会放一些我从市场买来的藏红花调味

The saffron should go into hot water.

藏红花要放到滚水中

This helps release the aroma that will infuse the dish.

这样才能让它释放的香味渗透到食材中

I'm also adding a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of cumin.

我会在放一点点盐和一勺孜然

That'll be flavourful.

味道就会很浓郁了

Cumin isn't a spice we use much in Chinese cooking

孜然不是我们在做中式烹调时常用的香料

because it's got such a strong flavour.

因为它的味道太浓郁了

But it's very popular in Middle Eastern dishes.

但是在中东菜里会用得很普遍

When the oil is hot in the wok, add two chopped onions

当锅里的油够热的时候，放两个切碎的洋葱进去

and stir fry for about a minute.

然后拌炒一分钟

Then add the carrots, salt and pepper

放入胡罗卜，盐和胡椒

and stir-fry for another couple of minutes.

然后再拌炒几分钟

I'm just putting in some celery,

我放了一些芹菜

trying to use everything that it's in their resources.

我准备吧他们能提供的都用上

That's local, yeah.

这是当地的食材，嗯

I'm going to cover that, because that will maximise the temperature.

我准备盖上锅盖，以使温度达到最高

This should be left to simmer for around eight minutes.

让它炖个8分钟左右

I have here some lovely pistachio and apricot seeds, and some raisins.

我要放一些开心果和杏仁，还有葡萄干

We're really here at the crossroads of east and west.

我们真是东西方烹饪结合了

And this is very Middle Eastern, using all these nuts.

把这些坚果撒进去，这就很有中东风味了

Next, the rice goes in.

然后，放米

Now this rice is a little bit like short grain, we'll just warm it up.

恩，这些米看起来很像糯米，我们把它加热

What I'll add is my liquid of water and saffron,

然后加入藏红花汤

a little bit of salt and spices.

再加一点点盐和香料

Finally add the pistachio nuts, apricot kernels raisins

最后放进开心果，杏仁和葡萄干

and chopped celery leaves.

It's different, it's good different, the taste is good,

看起来很不同，但是好的不同，味道会很好

and it looks pretty and colourful.

颜色也很好

OK, thank you, Chef.

The onions are really sweet, the rice is cooked through and tender,

洋葱真甜，米饭熟透了很软

the raisins in there really add a sweetness, yeah,
