Bend a rim around dish (5)
I believe the answer is:
pilau
'dish' is the definition.
(pilau is a kind of dish)
'bend a rim around' is the wordplay.
'bend' becomes 'U' (a U-bend is a kind of bend - pipe under sink).
'rim' becomes 'lip' (both can mean the edge of something).
'around' is a reversal indicator.
'u'+'a'+'lip'='ualip'
'ualip' in reverse letter order is 'PILAU'.
(Other definitions for pilau that I've seen before include "Spiced rice dish" , "spicy stuff" , "Rice seasoned with spices and cooked with meat or vegetables" , "Indian dish of rice boiled with meat, vegetables, spices etc" , "Exotic dish" .)
