Cook rises with traditional dish (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

irish stew

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'traditional dish' is the definition.
'Irish stew' can be an answer for 'dish' (Irish stew is an example). I'm not certain of the 'traditional' bit.

'cook rises with' is the wordplay.
'cook' indicates anagramming the letters.
'rises'+'with'='riseswith'
'riseswith' anagrammed gives 'IRISH STEW'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for irish stew that I've seen before include "Mutton and vegetable dish" , "Dish of meat, onions, potatoes etc" , "National dish of potatoes, mutton and onions simmered in water" , "Fare" , "Traditional meat dish" .)
