Contraindications

Basmati rice is generally best for Vata and Pitta types and will increase Kapha in excess.  Individuals that are experiencing symptoms of a sluggish digestion or slow metabolism may experience heaviness or sleepiness after eating and should avoid if this occurs.

General Directions

  1. Rinse the rice well before cooking.
  2. Boil 2 cups of water in a medium sauce pan.  Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add in the rice, 1 teaspoon of ghee or oil (optional), a pinch of salt (optional), and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper (optional).
  3. Cook, mostly covered, over a low heat for 12 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.
  4. At 12 minutes check on the rice and continue to cook until almost all of the water is gone.  Once this occurs, turn off the heat but leave the pan on the hot burner.  Add in an additional teaspoon of ghee or oil (optional), stir, and cover.  Let the rice sit for at least 5 minutes to allow any leftover water to absorb and the rice to fluff up.
  5. Serve as a side dish to any dal, veggie sauté, or recipe of choice.
