Reasons to Choose Basmati Rice as a Side Dish

ByChefOnline

If you were to poll the population of Britain, it is fair to say that many of them would have been guilty of visiting a food ordering website or two. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this. When people think of curries, however, the stereotype associated with it is one of an unhealthy stigma. This is not always the case – takeaway sites, such as ChefOnline, stock a variety of different options, some of which can actually be good for you. One such prime example, is that of basmati rice.

Healthiness Epitomised

If you are looking for an accompaniment to your curry, and want one which is not particularly detrimental for your health, you need look no further than basmati rice. You will be hard-pressed to source a rice-alternative which contains the excellent nutrients that basmati does. Amino acids aplenty, combined with no cholesterol, are just some of the health-benefiting elements within.

Digest With Ease

Should you be someone that orders curry on a regular basis, you may be worried about the adverse effects which it can take on your body. If you factor in basmati rice into your meal, this is a concern which is significantly lessened. Basmati rice, as opposed to some of its other variations, such as jasmine rice, is fairly soft. This subsequently means that it can pass through the digestive tracts with ease, and can be broken down almost effortlessly. If you are someone that has a problem with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), this is the rice for you.

Conforms To Diet Restrictions

Whilst you may not think it, you can enjoy a good curry, along with a tasty rice dish, and not break your diet. Thanks to the fibre contained within basmati rice, your body feels full for a prolonged period of time; not only does this have a positive effect on your appetite, but it also takes longer to digest. To access the optimum nutritional value, we would advise that you boil your basmati rice.
