Naturoherbs Organic Kerala Red Rice (Palakkadan Matta) – Wholesome, Traditional, Nutrient-Rich
Authentic Kerala Red Rice – Bold Flavor & Ancient Nutrition
Experience the richness of tradition with Naturoherbs Organic Kerala Red Rice, also known as Palakkadan Matta Rice, Rose Matta, or Kerala Matta. This naturally parboiled red rice is grown in the fertile fields of Palakkad, Kerala, and is cherished for its distinct earthy aroma, bold taste, and high nutritional value.
Unlike regular white rice, Kerala red rice is medium-grained, plump after cooking, and deeply satisfying in every bite. It pairs beautifully with Kerala-style curries, sambar, rasam, fish curry, and coconut-based gravies, offering a perfect balance of flavor and health.
Key Features & Benefits
Single-Origin & Organic
Sourced directly from certified organic farms in Kerala, our red rice is non-GMO, free from pesticides, and traditionally processed to retain maximum bran content, nutrients, and flavor.
