Paloo is the Kirgiz version of a dish that in the Central Asia is commonly called Plov. It’s made of pieces of meat (usually mutton or beef, sometimes chicken) fried in a big qazan (a cast iron cauldron) and mixed with fried chopped carrots, jiuicai (Chinese chive) and cooked rice. The dish is garnished with fried garlic cloves and red peppers. Shirin Paloo is a vegetarian dish where meat has been replaced with dried fruits, such as prunes, apricots and raisins.

Gelin Budu, o "muslos de novia" es el nombre turcomano-iraquí que se da a estas croquetas de carne blanda y dorada (conocidas incluso como Kubbat halab en árabe y Pirinç köftesi en turco). La característica única de este plato, más que su extraño nombre, es la corteza de arroz trabajada con harina, que da a las croquetas un sabor y una consistencia únicos.
