One day, the son of the ruler of Bukhara met a beautiful young girl from a poor family. Their marriage was impossible because of their unequal status in society. Suffering from unrequited love, the prince loses his appetite for food and life and becomes weaker day by day. The ruler then summoned the famous physician Ibn Sina and asked him to determine the cause of the disease and treat his only heir. Ibn Sina, who examined the young man, was convinced that the cause of his illness was love. He tells the ruler that there are two ways to treat his heir, the first is to marry two young men, and the second is to treat the young man with a very strong dish consisting of seven ingredients, i.e. pilaf soup. Ibn Sina saw that the more he ate pilaf, the stronger he became. After that, this dish will become not only a healing and invigorating food, but also a feast and a holiday meal.
