I really love to eat. I never eat to be full. I eat for taste and pleasure. The presentation of the food is as important to me as the taste. I also love to cook. My friends love my food very much. I love to try world cuisine. But Turkish cuisine has a very special place for me. Meals, which are the synthesis of Europe and Asia, are a feast of taste. Meals with a story also take my attention. Some dishes really have a historical past. It definitely sends a message. Finding delicious food that has a story is among my interests. I would like to describe one of them in this article. It is a wonderful dish with the hand flavor of my mother, who is the master of this dish. “Perde Pilav ” in English translation we may say rice with curtain.
Before giving the recipe, I would like to tell its story. In ancient times, a woman married her son in Siirt, a city in southeastern part of Turkey. She made a dinner to tell her bride something about marriage. The shape of the dish was like a cone and the meal was covered with a very tasty dough. The dough was filled with rice pilaf and partridge grains. There were almonds in the rice. While serving the meal, the woman said: Look, this is your house, my daughter. It has walls outside your house. Don’t let the secrets of your house come out of these walls. Let everything be special for you. May these grains of rice be privacy and privacy in your home. Let the partridge be the love of you and your husband. These almonds are your children. Wish all af you live happily.Has a great story, right?
Making this dish really requires skill and experience. My mom is really good at this. I’m sharing pictures of her while she was cooking. We need special pot for Perde Pilav. Also we need chicken because nobody prefers partridge.

We cover the inside of the special pan for perde pilav with butter and place the dough we have prepared thinly in the pan. Then we fill the pan with one layer of rice and one layer of chicken. Then we cover it with dough and bake it well in the oven.
Isn’t it a wonderful sight? If you come to Turkey, it is one of the flavors you should taste.
