Rice recipe Pauli ruined (5)
I believe the answer is:
pilau
'rice recipe' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'pauli ruined' is the wordplay.
'ruined' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pauli' anagrammed gives 'PILAU'.
(Other definitions for pilau that I've seen before include "Oriental rice dish" , "Rice cooked in seasoned broth" , "Indian rice recipe" , "Rice cooked in well-seasoned broth" , "Foreign dish" .)
