One of the best ways to pair Raniakanda is with fish. We did it with a grilled head with some curry sauce on the side. This beautiful table rice goes well with almost anything and can be consumed everyday.
About
Raniakanda is one of our folk rice varieties that along with Dudhersar is suitable as good table rice. The slender, medium grains cook to fluffy, light rice that is non-sticky. Harvested the traditional way, Raniakanda retains much of the micronutrients and is one of the salt-tolerant varieties of the region.

Raniakanda can well substitute your regular table rice. Pair it with any curries or vegetables: we like it the best with fish, though.
