Restaurant-Quality Basmati Rice at Home

Craving that soft, fragrant basmati rice served in your favourite Indian restaurant? You're not alone. The secret isn’t magic — it’s knowing the right kind of rice, the right steps, and how to elevate each grain with subtle enhancements. Let’s make rice a main event.

🌾 Why Basmati?

Basmati is no ordinary rice. Its extra-long grains, low glycemic index, and rich, nutty aroma make it the king of all rices. When cooked properly, each grain stays firm and fluffy — never sticky. We source only the highest-grade, Premium Organic Basmati Rice (10kg) that's naturally aged for optimal fragrance and texture.

🔥 Step-by-Step Cooking Method

Perfect basmati is more science than guesswork. Here’s how to do it right:

• 🎯 Ratio: 1 cup rice : 1.5 cups water
• 🕒 Soaking: Rinse thoroughly and soak for 30 minutes
• 🥄 Salt: 1 tsp per cup of rice
• 💨 Cook Time: 10-12 minutes (lid on, low heat)
• 🚫 DO NOT STIR during cooking

🌈 Flavor Enhancements

Want that golden glow you see at buffets? Add ½ tsp of BuyOrganic Turmeric during cooking. Not only does it enhance color, it adds anti-inflammatory benefits too.

Optional: Add a few cloves, a cinnamon stick, or a bay leaf during boiling for subtle aroma layering.

🍛 Pairing Suggestions

Pair your basmati masterpiece with a hearty, protein-rich main. Our top recommendation? Non-GMO Textured Soya Chunks — the ultimate meatless curry base that soaks up spices like a dream.
