Matta Rice

Matta Rice, also known as Kerala Red Rice or Rosematta Rice, is a traditional parboiled rice variety cherished across South India, especially in Kerala, for its distinct reddish-brown hue, earthy aroma, and hearty texture. Known for its rich flavor and slightly chewy bite, it’s a staple in authentic Kerala meals — perfectly paired with fish curry, sambar, avial, and other traditional dishes.
