This pilaf is a great side for a variety of main dishes.
I use a less stock to rice ratio here because zucchini has a lot of moisture. If you add too much you get a gloopy mess, it is better to finish off rice with the lid steaming method I mention in instructions, as the result will alway be lovely fluffy rice.
Delicious served with a dish like this Roasted Butternut Squash and Lentil Curry

I made this last night with your Puri Prawns, what a great combination!! Great way to sneak extra speed vegetables into the rice and the flavours were beautiful together!! Thanks so much Siobhan!!
You are welcome Belinda, it really compliments curries so well, so that was a good choice to serve it with the puri prawns.
