What it is

Heera is the main brand of P&B (Foods) Ltd, a Bradford company that describes itself as one of the largest independent wholesale distributors of Asian foods across Britain and Europe.

Ponni is the everyday rice of Tamil Nadu, a medium grain that is parboiled before milling. It cooks soft and faintly sweet, and it holds its shape under sambar or curd instead of turning to mush. It is the rice most Tamil kitchens cook twice a day. Choosing between rice? Ponni boiled for everyday meals; ponni raw for pongal and payasam; sona masoori for a lighter, Andhra-style grain.

Tip: For curd rice, cook it with an extra half cup of water and mash it lightly while still warm.

Goes well with: Heera Toor Dal, Annapoorna Sambar Powder, 777 Lime Pickle
