Description
Tropical Island Golden Sella Basmati Rice 5kg is parboiled before milling, which keeps the grains firm and separate — well suited to jollof rice, biryani and dishes that simmer for a while without turning mushy. The 5kg bag is a practical everyday size for most households.
How to cook
- Basic method: 1 cup rice to about 2 cups water, simmered 18-22 minutes — parboiled rice takes a little longer than regular white basmati.
- Rinse rice until water runs clear, drain, then cook covered on low heat.
- Let the pot rest 5 minutes off heat before serving for fluffy, separated grains.
Perfect for
- Jollof rice
- Fried rice
- Coconut rice
- Curries and stews
Storage
- Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container.
- Keep away from moisture and pests.
