Pilau is a common swahili dish from Kenya and Tanzania. It is made from rice that has been cooked in spices like, cumin, cloves, cinnamon and cardamom while browning the onions, and it is this browning of onions that gives the pilau that brown color. You can use either beef, goat or chicken as meat options and the authentic way of serving it is with kachumbari, a mix of tomatoes and onions.
