Aroz is a Goan pilaf, in which beautiful long grains of rice receive their yellow hue from turmeric and are cooked in a broth, flavoured subtly with few spices. It tastes great on its own, but can be coupled with curries like the vindaloo, sorpatel, etc or sides like stews, steaks, meat chops, or the all-time-favorite Goan chorisos.
