RECIPE TIPS
PRAWN & BEAN PILAU

Leave out the chicken and add 1 tbsp medium curry powder instead of the allspice. Swap the dill for 1 small bunch coriander. After the rice has cooked for 8 mins, add 150g small, raw peeled prawns with the beans. Finish cooking as above, then stir through the coriander and 50g toasted almonds instead of pine nuts.
