Karuppu Kavuni (Raw)

Black rice or the forbidden rice (Chinese) is a rare and a very old variety of rice that has been growing in India for centuries. It is mainly grown in the North East region (called as Chak Hao) and the southern parts (called as Kavuni in Tamil) of India.As a result, both brown and black rice are higher in fiber and some nutrients, and are also heartier and chewier. Although both black and brown rice qualify as whole grains, black rice probably wins the nutrition derby. A serving of black rice gives you the same amount of anthocyanins as a serving of blueberries.
