Poongar Aval 500g

Poongar rice aval is a type of flattened rice made from Poongar rice, which is also known as red rice or brown rice. Poongar rice is a traditional variety of rice that is commonly grown in Tamil Nadu, a state in southern India.

To make Poongar rice aval, the rice is first parboiled and then flattened into thin, dry flakes. This process of parboiling and flattening helps to preserve the nutrients in the rice and makes it easier to cook and digest.

Poongar rice aval is a popular ingredient in South Indian cuisine and is often used to make dishes like aval upma, a savory breakfast dish made with flattened rice, vegetables, and spices. It can also be used to make sweet dishes like aval kesari, a dessert made with flattened rice, ghee, sugar, and cardamom.

Poongar rice is believed to be a healthier alternative to white rice because it is high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, and has a lower glycemic index, which means it is absorbed more slowly by the body and can help regulate blood sugar levels.
