Let’s talk rice. On the surface, it seems simple, right? Just water and grains. But somehow, cooking rice becomes a high-stakes game of "will it stick?", "do I salt it?", or the dreaded "what is this gluggy mess again?" We get it – we've all been there, scraping the saucepan (or even throwing it out) and mentally committing to never cook rice again.
So, we’ve taken one for the team and done the hard part for you.
Introducing our Low FODMAP Basmati Rice and our flavour-packed Rice Pilaf – two new additions to the We Feed You range, both gluten free, frozen for convenience, and made by real chefs.
Why Basmati Rice is Our MVP
Basmati rice is our go-to for a reason. It’s naturally low in GI, meaning it’s slower to digest and helps keep your blood sugar steady – making it a smart choice for anyone trying to fuel their day without the crash.
It’s also:
-
Naturally gluten free
-
Low FODMAP (Monash University certified)
-
Light, fluffy and neutral – aka the perfect base for anything
Our 250g tray of Basmati Rice includes two perfectly portioned 125g serves, so it’s ideal to pair with your favourite We Feed You share packs or meals. And yes, it saves you the washing up too.
Great ways to use our Basmati Rice:
-
With a butter chicken, curry or any other share pack
-
In a poke bowl with a protein of choice, edamame and slaw
-
With grilled fish, lemon and greens
-
As a base for burrito bowls or nourish bowls
-
Quick DIY fried rice (add veggies, egg, done!)
Meet Our Rice Pilaf – Fragrant, Warming and Anything But Boring
Made with basmati rice, brown onion, olive oil, garlic and a warm blend of spices (think Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Allspice, Ground Coriander, Ground Cloves, Ground Ginger and Cardamom Powder), our Rice Pilaf is a ready-to-go flavour bomb. It’s gently spiced (not spicy!) and made entirely from natural, gluten free ingredients.
It’s not Low FODMAP due to the onion and garlic, but it’s the perfect match for our share packs of curry or as a side to your own creations.
Serve it with:
-
Our Butter Chicken, Beef Rendang Share Packs
-
Grilled lamb or falafel and Greek yoghurt
-
Roasted veg and a tahini drizzle
-
Chargrilled chicken and tabbouleh
- The options are endless!
