Baghali polow (Persian: باقالی پلو) is a popular[1] Iranian dish of rice, fava beans and dill. In Persian, baghali means fava bean while polo is pilaf, a style of cooked rice. It is made by cooking rice and green broad beans in boiling water. When cooked, the rice and beans are layered with dill in a pan, and everything is baked in an oven until ready. Saffron water can also be added to the rice.[2] It is typically served with meat.[3]
