Wash the rice and soak it in warm water for 20 minutes.
Soften the onion in butter for 5 minutes and lightly toast the pine nuts.
Add rice, currants, and spices, then cook a firm pilaf for 8 minutes.
Fill the rib pocket and close the opening with kitchen twine.
Bake covered at 170 C for 2.5 hours.
Uncover, brown for 20 minutes, and rest 10 minutes before slicing.
💡 Tip: Leaving the rice half firm prevents it from turning mushy inside the rib.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve on a large platter with lemony green salad and ayran.
