White Rice Flakes 500 g

Rice flakes, also known as Pohe or flattened rice, are a popular cereal product made from rice that has been processed into thin, flaky pieces. The preparation involves several steps: first, the rice is cleaned to remove impurities, then dehulled to remove the outer husk. The grains are soaked in water to reduce anti-nutrients, followed by solar drying and gentle roasting in a traditional pan called uruli. After roasting, the rice is passed through roller mills to flatten it into flakes and then oven-dried to lower moisture content and extend shelf life. Rice flakes are versatile and used in a variety of dishes such as Poha, Puttu, Chiwda, Pongal, and various desserts.
