Fudco Broken Basmati Rice 2kg

About the Product

Fudco Broken Basmati Rice is a type of rice that is made from broken grains of basmati rice. Basmati rice is a long-grain rice variety known for its fragrant aroma, delicate flavor, and slender grains. When basmati rice grains break during processing, they are often packaged and sold as "broken basmati rice." This broken rice retains the characteristic aroma and flavor of traditional basmati rice but cooks faster and is more affordable.

• Texture: It still provides a pleasant texture with fluffy and separate grains when cooked correctly.
  
• Nutrition: Like whole basmati rice, broken basmati rice is a source of carbohydrates and energy. It's low in fat and contains essential nutrients like vitamins and minerals, including B vitamins and manganese.
