Seasoned rice dish (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

pilau

pilaf

'seasoned rice dish' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pilau that I've seen before include "Eastern dish" , "Speciality" , "spicy stuff" , "Rice seasoned with spices and cooked with meat or vegetables" , "Eastern food" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, The Times and the Universal.
