🔥 Welcome to Golden Hands Cooking! In today’s special video, we prepare two giant pumpkins filled with traditional Azerbaijani pilaf and handmade meatballs. Gunel carefully cuts each pumpkin into a natural crescent-moon opening, fills one with golden rice pilaf and the other with dozens of tender meatballs, and then bakes both inside a real brick oven for a deep, smoky flavor.
You will see every step: – Cutting and cleaning the pumpkins – Preparing pilaf with meat, saffron and spices – Rolling perfectly round meatballs – Stuffing each pumpkin to the top – Baking them slowly in a brick oven – Opening the pumpkins so the pilaf and meatballs pour out in a beautiful stream – Serving everything village-style
This is one of our most unique dishes — combining tradition, creativity and the natural beauty of Azerbaijani village cuisine.
Enjoy the full cooking process and the taste of REAL village life! Thank you for watching and being part of our journey!
