Riz Casimir

Although it is filled with exotic ingredients, riz Casimir is an authentic Swiss dish dating back to 1952, when the owner of Mövenpick restaurant, Ueli Prager, first put it on the menu. The dish is made with chicken, cream, coconut milk, rice, toasted almonds, pears, pineapples, peaches, and a variety of flavorings such as curry powder, chili, cinnamon, cloves, garam masala, and bay leaves. Although riz Casimir was at the peak of its popularity in the 1950s, nowadays it is often mentioned as a favorite dish among people of all ages in the country.
