Ponkathir Matta Broken Rice 500g(പൊടിയരി)
Ponkathir Matta Broken Rice (പൊടിയരി) — Kerala's Comfort Grain, Broken & Ready to Cook
Podiyari — broken Matta rice — is the soul of Kerala's most comforting everyday meals. Made from Kerala's beloved red Matta rice, broken into smaller pieces for faster cooking, this grain carries the same earthy, nutty flavour and wholesome nutrition of whole Matta rice, but cooks up softer and quicker — making it the perfect choice for kanji, congee, and traditional Kerala rice dishes.
Humble, nourishing, and deeply rooted in Kerala's food culture — Podiyari is the grain that has sustained generations.
