i have been using zebra branded basmati rice for few years now,but lately i cant seem to find them at the usual desi/indian stores…

i think mom brought zebra too but haven't seen it for ages. but she's using two kinds now, one that sucks so i didn't bother remembering it's name, the other is tilda. it is really nice chawal. cooks almost perfectly.

thanks khumar....:)...
i might try tilda then...

the reason i liked zebra was that in my opinion they never got mushy...even if i kinda had more water added to them...or left them on 'dumm' for a bit longer....there were less chances of going wrong with zebra....sighs

For years I used either a Tilda brand or more recently "Habib" - I got used to the Habib and it was always on offer somewhere or another.

Recently, apparently the cost of rise has gone up (??) and Habib was selling at a lot more than usual and as Zebra were on offer I tried them - I agree, they don't go mushy, stay separate and even my MIL who is staying with us from India likes the way they cook!!!

My mum always gets Rozana and sometimes Akash or Surya
