Description
Indrayani Rice is a premium variety of aromatic rice grown primarily in the Western Ghats of Maharashtra, India, particularly in the Maval and Ambegaon regions of Pune district. Known for its distinct fragrance, soft texture, and slightly sticky nature when cooked, Indrayani rice is a staple in many Maharashtrian households.
With medium-sized grains and a naturally rich aroma, it pairs beautifully with traditional curries, dals, and vegetable preparations. It’s especially popular in dishes like masale bhaat, varan bhaat, and khichdi.
Unlike polished basmati, Indrayani retains more of its natural nutrients and flavor, especially in its unpolished or semi-polished forms, making it both a tasty and wholesome choice
