Reduce the heat to medium temperature. Add grated carrots and onions, stir. Pour in water and insert whole garlic cloves so that their tails stick out above the surface.
Cover the cauldron with a lid and simmer for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. After 20 minutes, add salt and pilaf spices.

Step 3
Reduce the heat to minimum, remove the cauldron from the fire. Remove the garlic and pour boiling water over it. Spread the rice evenly over the surface of the zirvak without stirring.
Cover with a lid and cook for about an hour on low heat. If the water has evaporated and the rice is not yet done, carefully pour boiling water through a strainer so the rice doesn't burn.
