This Middle Eastern-style rice pilaf with pomegranate seeds and pistachios tastes great with grilled fish or meat, especially lamb. Make sure the rice doesn't get sticky — it's supposed to be light and fluffy.
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 cup long-grain rice
2 ¼ cups hot vegetable broth
4 saffron threads
1 pinch ground allspice
3 tablespoons unsalted shelled pistachios
1 tablespoon butter
1 large pomegranate, peeled and seeded
salt and freshly ground black pepper
