Whole Crown Prince Biryani - Meera Sodha

£20.50

A note from our cook

Meera Sodha's recipes always bring joy and warmth to the table, and this is no exception. This is the perfect dish for sharing on a balmy autumnal evening, especially around Halloween. It can be served as a main course, but the spices and flavours are sympathetic enough to accompany a whole raft of dishes. Crown Prince is our favourite squash variety for flavour and sweetness, and is beautiful too - this dish is a real pleasure to behold! We have added a raita as a little Riverford twist but to stay true to Meera's recipe, and keep it vegan, you can omit this element or use a dairy free yoghurt instead.
