Description
Araikkal Kuthiraivali rice, also known as barnyard millet, is a small, nutritious grain with a slightly nutty flavor. It’s gluten-free, rich in fiber, and a good source of vitamins and minerals. Commonly used in South Indian cuisine, it’s ideal for making dosas, idlis, upma, or rice dishes. To cook, rinse the rice thoroughly, then cook it in a 1:2 ratio of rice to water for about 15-20 minutes, similar to cooking regular rice.
