MATTA RICE

Matta Rice, also known as Kerala Red Rice or Rosematta Rice, is a nutritious, unpolished rice variety with a reddish-brown outer layer. It is widely consumed in Kerala and coastal Karnataka and is known for its distinct earthy flavor and chewy texture. Matta rice is rich in fiber, iron, and essential minerals, making it a healthier alternative to white rice. It is commonly used in boiled rice dishes, biryanis, and traditional Kerala meals.
