What it is

Basmati is the long-grain rice of the Himalayan foothills, grown in India and Pakistan and known for grains that lengthen as they cook and a light fragrance. This 5 kg bag suits kitchens that make pulao and biryani often.

Cooked right, the grains come out long, dry and separate, which is exactly what pulao, jeera rice and Indo-Chinese fried rice need. Choosing between rice? Laila Basmati for pulao and fried rice; Chozha Seeraga Samba Rice 5kg for Tamil-style biryani; Heera Sona Masoori Rice 10kg for everyday rice with sambar.

Tip: For fried rice, cook the basmati a day ahead and chill it uncovered. Cold, dry grains fry without clumping.

Goes well with: Shan Briyani Masala, Shan Fried Onion, Heera Cumin (Jeera) Whole Seeds
