Natco Basmati rice is 100% pure basmati and comes from the foothills of the Himalayas. This fragrant, fluffy rice is an absolute must for any rice dish especially biryanis and pilau. "Basmati" translates simply as "aroma". Fragrance is the key to a good quality basmati rice. Basmati rice should have a long grain, full flavour and honeyed aroma.
COOKING BASMATI RICE For perfect results wash the rice 3 times thoroughly in cold water and then let it soak for 15 minutes. Normally 1 cup (250g/8oz) of uncooked rice will serve 2 generous portions. Drain rice before cooking.
