Product Description
Authentic Goan Red Rice (ukdae), which is rich in iron, fibre & antioxidants. Low GI, ideal for diabetics & curries. Learn how to cook red rice perfectly!

Sourced from the picturesque farms of Goa, Goan Red Rice is celebrated for its firm texture and slightly nutty flavour, making it a perfect match for coconut milk-based curries and other traditional dishes.

What Makes Goan Red Rice Unique?
Goan Red Rice is parboiled, a process where rice is partially boiled in its husk before drying. This traditional technique:

  • Enhances its nutritional profile, preserving essential vitamins and minerals.
  • Makes the rice less sticky and easier to cook.
  • Improves its texture for a firmer bite.

This rice is a better source of fibre, calcium, potassium, and vitamin B-6 compared to regular white rice. Its low glycaemic index makes it a fantastic choice for managing blood sugar levels, ideal for diabetics and health-conscious individuals.

When buying from Sattvic Foods you will receive only the highest quality of organically grown, authentic goan red rice. Grown by farmers who practice and follow sustainable development practices, our red rice grains hail from the humble farms of Goa.

Red rice is rich in iron, vitamins, fibre and minerals. More importantly, unlike conventional white rice, red rice helps maintain your blood sugar levels as it has a low glycemic index.
