Step:

  1. Slice the pepper as thinly or as roughly as you like. Fry in a tablespoon of oil in a pot over medium high heat

  2. As soon as it becomes fragrant (5 min), add washed barberries. Stir

  3. Next, add saffron (I added quite a generous pinch) and rice. Stir everything

  4. Lower the heat then add water. Stir until most of the liquid is absorbed (15 min), then take off heat and cover with a lid for about 10 minutes

  5. Taste and season to your liking. Serve with olives if desired. Enjoy :)
