What it is

Basmati is the long, slender rice of the Himalayan foothills of India and Pakistan, known for grains that grow longer as they cook and a smell that fills the kitchen while the pot boils. This is the ten-kilo bag, for homes where biryani, pulao or ghee rice comes round most weeks.

Cooked properly, the grains stay dry and separate rather than sticky, which is what you want under a biryani masala or beside a paneer curry. Choosing between rice? Basmati for biryani, pulao and North Indian meals; seeraga samba for Dindigul and Ambur-style biryani; sona masoori for everyday sambar and rasam.

Tip: Soak for 20 minutes, not longer. Over-soaked basmati breaks when you stir in the ghee and spices.

Goes well with: GRB Pure Ghee, Swaad Green Cardamom, Heera Cumin (Jeera) Seeds
