To prepare plov, start by frying the finely chopped onion and garlic in a large pot until golden brown. Then, add the diced mutton and fry until it is browned on all sides. Next, add the grated carrot and continue frying for a few minutes. This combination of onion, garlic, mutton, and carrot creates the base flavors of the plov.

<p><b>Plov</b> is considered to be the national dish of Uzbekistan, and it has many regional variations. In Northern Uzbekistan, plov is made with lamb or beef and features a mixture of rice, fried onions, garlic, and carrots. The dish is cooked in a large cauldron known as a kazan over an open flame.</p>
=== Preparation ===


<p>When cooking plov, Northern Uzbeks use a unique technique to achieve the perfect texture and flavor. First, the rice is soaked in water for several hours to soften the grains. Then the rice is fried with the other ingredients, forming a golden crust on the bottom of the kazan. This crust, known as Kaskoni, is considered a delicacy and is served on top of the rice.</p>
To prepare shashlik, start by cutting the meat into bite-sized cubes. Then, prepare the marinade by mixing together the finely chopped onion, sugar, coriander, mushroom, and salt. The marinade adds flavor and tenderizes the meat, making it juicy and delicious.


<table class="wikitable">
Place the meat cubes in the marinade and coat them evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the meat marinate in the refrigerator for at least a few hours or overnight. This allows the flavors to penetrate the meat and infuse it with a rich taste.
