What it is

Heera is the main brand of P&B (Foods) Ltd, a Bradford-based company that describes itself as one of the largest independent wholesale distributors of Asian foods across Britain and Europe. This bag holds its green sultanas, the long, olive-green kind.

They are firmer and a little tangier than golden ones, so they stay whole in a pulao or biryani instead of melting away. Plenty of people eat them straight from the bag with a few almonds. Choosing between sultanas? Green for rice dishes and snacking; Heera Golden Sultana for soft, sweet kesari; Heera Black Sultana for fruit cake and chutney.

Tip: Scatter a handful over the biryani just before the dum lid goes on, so they plump in the steam.

Goes well with: Daawat Original Basmati Rice, Heera Almonds, Heera Cashew Nuts
