(Ambika) Rice Flake 500g (India)
Ambika Rice Flakes are made by parboiling rice and then flattening the grains to produce a solid flake. Rice is parboiled before flattening so that it can be consumed with very little to no cooking. These flakes of rice swell when added to liquid (either hot or cold) as they absorb water, milk or any other liquids. This easily digestible form of raw rice is very popular across India, Nepal and Bangladesh and is normally used to prepare snacks or light and easy fast food in a variety of Indian cuisine styles.
