Our long grain white rice is a fluffy grain and a great accompaniment to tasty, traditional, and homemade dishes. Basmati rice is a medium grain, slender rice variety native to parts of India. It is easy to cook and results in fluffy, perfectly cooked white rice every time. Some of the best dishes include Jollof Rice, Fried Rice, Burritos, Curries, Salads. Try this aromatic rice grain with its vibrant, rich, and starchy flavour.
For best results we recommend you soak the rice in cold water for 30 minutes, then rinse in a sieve with cold water.
Take a large pan and add 2 measures of cold water to 1 measure of basmati.
Bring to the boil, reduce to a low heat, cover, and simmer for 10 - 12 mins until the water is absorbed. Avoid opening the lid or stirring the rice.
Remove from heat, stand covered for 5 mins.
Lightly fork through the grains before serving
