Araliya Red Raw Rice 5kg

Araliya Red Raw Rice is milled with the bran left on and nothing else done to it, which keeps its deep red colour, its fibre and a clean, slightly earthy taste. In Sri Lankan villages this is the rice people grow and eat, and it is the one to buy if you want a healthier red rice for everyday cooking in the UK.

Red raw rice is lighter than parboiled red nadu and cooks a touch faster. Soak it for twenty minutes, simmer it with a little more water than white rice, and let it rest before you fluff it. It is at its best with a sharp coconut sambol, a bowl of dhal or a fish curry, and it makes a filling base for a weekday lunch box.

Araliya grows, mills and packs this rice in Sri Lanka, free of sand, stones and black seeds. Order Araliya Red Raw Rice online from Chandra World Foods in 5kg and 10kg bags, stocked in the UK and delivered nationwide.
