Why Should I Get White Basmati Rice ?

Basmati Rice can be either brown or white, with the brown variety having more flavour. When cooked, the rice is lighter and more fluffy than standard white rice, and does not stick together...a stark contrast to more conventional store-bought white rice's that leave little room for error, ending up a rather stodgy mass despite your best efforts.

Basmati rice is a staple in South East Asian cuisine and goes really well with curries.
