The Tilda Peri Peri Basmati Rice has been announced by the brand as the latest flavor option that will offer consumers a ready-to-heat side dish option that goes great with their choice of main. The product is made using streamed basmati rice that has been combined with red and green peppers along with garlic, chili, oregano, onion and lemon juice. This creates a fragrant, spicy dish that speaks to the growing consumer preference for convenient foods that incorporate international flavor that is otherwise confined to authentic restaurants.
The Tilda Peri Peri Basmati Rice was explained by Head of Innovation at Tilda, Camilla Sheeley, who said, "Our customers and panel unanimously decided on Peri Peri – the bold flavour we’ve come to know and love through casual dining. This versatile, savory recipe rice is packed with flavor, heat and no artificial ingredients for consumers to enjoy within the convenience of their own homes."
