How to Use Brown Rice?

Wholegrain brown rice has a fuller texture than white rice, making it a versatile pantry essential:

• Serve as a side dish with curries, stews, stir-fries, grilled meats, or roasted vegetables.
• Use as a hearty base for grain bowls, Buddha bowls, and salads for a source of slow-release energy.
• Add to soups and casseroles for extra nutrition and texture.
• Cook with herbs and spices to create a fragrant rice pilaf.
• Use as a replacement for white rice in sushi and burritos for added fibre.

How to Cook Brown Rice?

1. Rinse 75g of rice per person in cold, running water.
2. Place in a saucepan with 225ml of water per portion, then bring to a boil, cover and simmer gently for 35-40 minutes or until the rice is tender.
3. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving for the perfect fluffy texture.

For the most consistent results, you can also prepare it in a rice cooker.

Pro Tip: For extra flavour, cook with stock or coconut milk.

Brown Rice Health Benefits

Organic brown rice is a healthier alternative to regular white rice, as well as other starchy carbohydrates like bread or potatoes, with a range of nutritional benefits:

• It has a high protein fibre content, which helps you feel satiated. Together with its complex carbohydrate profile, it will provide a steady source of energy.
• With a lower glycaemic index than white rice or wheat bread, it can initiate a more gradual rise in blood sugar levels, making it potentially suitable for diabetics.
• Brown rice flour is made from the entire grain, including the nutrient-rich bran and germ layers, which contain the naturally occurring Vitamins and minerals, including magnesium, phosphorus, and manganese.
• Cultivated in the heart of Europe, it has significantly lower concentrations of arsenic than most basmati rice, making it safe for babies and small children, as well as suitable for regular consumption.
• The rice is prepared in an environment where it cannot come into contact with gluten-containing grains, making it ideal for a wide range of dietary requirements.
