Kateh
''Kateh'' is an Iranian cuisine, Iranian rice dish from the Caspian Sea, Caspian region of Iran. Unlike ''Pilaf, Polo/Cholo'', kateh is sticky and does not have tahdig (the rice, bread or potato crust at the bottom), though it does form a crust on the bottom where the salt and oil collect. Generally, kateh needs half the cooking time of polo-style rice and has a denser flavor due to the addition of butter or oil in the cooking process. ''Kateh'' is considered generally the most simple Iranian rice as the ease and speed of cooking makes it popular for casual dinners. It is sometimes referred to as "everyday rice". It is also a traditional dish of Caspian cuisine and found in the Mazandaran province, Mazandaran, and Gilan province, Gilan provinces.
