The good old steamed rice is the staple of all Indian Diets. You can eat with the Tadka daal, as they do in the north, or with Aamti is they do in Maharashtra, or with fish curry, as they do in Bengal or Goa, or with Rassam, as they do in the south.
It’s the most versatile of the Indian dishes. The soft steaming fully white grains of this steamed broken rice have the power to invoke nostalgia and cravings at the same time.
