This is an extremely simple leek dish. It is an "olive oil dish" (a class of dishes in Turkish cousine). This type of dish is generally eaten cold. So you can prepare one day before, rest it in the refrigerator and eat later.

Steps

1

Add generous amount of olive oil to the pot. Slice the leeks and carrots. Add vegetables, and rice to the pot.
2

Add juice of 1 whole lemon. You can add juice of half of lime, orange or satsuma as well for some fruity flavour. Add 1 tbsp sugar, salt & pepper. Mix just a little, don't mess much with the leeks. Add the water and cook in medium heat for half an hour or until the carrots are cooked.
3

Keep it in the refrigerator after the dish cools down. Serve cold. I generally add some hot sauce and eat along with yogurt. Enjoy. "Afiyet olsun".
