Basmathi Brown Rice


Lightly rinse 2 cups of 160 ml basmathi brown rice. Add 2 cups of 160 ml water and cover the casserole pot. Microwaved for 6 minutes on full power. Let it rest for 1 hour.

After 1 hour, remove the cover of the casserole pot and voila! Light fluffy basmathi brown rice is cooked perfectly.

The brown basmathi rice is light and fluffy but with more fibres. It has a nutty earthy taste so there may be people who are not used to this taste. I like it for its taste and also because it is so easy to cook.

This is the packet of basmathi brown rice.

 1 kg at a RRP of MYR 18.50 nett.

*** Day 4 of 4 Days Food ***

    1. If you never buy basmathi rice then it is even more unlikely for you to buy basmathi BROWN rice.
