Maharajah’s Choice is one of the ranges Australians tend to meet first, and their classic basmati is a dependable middle ground. Long grain, clean aroma, and it behaves the same way every time.

Consistency is worth more than you would think in rice.

Rinse, soak briefly, then cook however you normally do. It suits biryani, pulao and plain steamed rice equally, and it does not turn to porridge if you leave it a minute too long.
