Ingredients

• 1kg Swad Adatt Plus Matta Rice With 50% Bran, 1 Kg Pouch
• 200 g Table Salt

Instructions

1. 1. Rinse 1 cup of matta rice thoroughly under running water 2-3 times to remove excess starch.
2. 2. Soak the rinsed rice in 2 cups of water for at least 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.
3. 3. After soaking, transfer the rice along with the soaking water to a heavy-bottomed pot or pressure cooker.
4. 4. Add an additional 1 cup of water and 1/4 tsp of salt to the pot. Stir gently to combine.
5. 5. If using a pot, cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook on medium heat for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the rice is soft and fully cooked. If using a pressure cooker, close the lid and cook for 3-4 whistles on medium heat.
6. 6. Once cooked, let the rice rest for 5-10 minutes. If using a pressure cooker, wait for the pressure to release naturally before opening the lid.
7. 7. Fluff the rice gently with a fork to separate the grains. Serve hot with your choice of curry or side dish.
