White Rice

A Simple Yet Essential Lebanese Side

In Lebanese cuisine, White Rice is a beloved staple, offering a light and aromatic base that complements a wide variety of dishes. Our White Rice is cooked to perfection, fluffy and tender, making it the ideal accompaniment to the rich, spiced flavours of grilled meats, stews, or mezze. Its simplicity allows the main dish to shine, while the delicate texture of the rice provides a satisfying contrast.

Fluffy and Aromatic

We use high-quality long-grain rice, ensuring each grain remains separate and fluffy once cooked. The rice is prepared with a touch of olive oil or butter for richness, and occasionally, a subtle hint of salt is added to enhance the flavour. Some recipes may include a hint of vermicelli, toasted to golden perfection, adding a light crunch and a nutty flavour that complements the rice beautifully. While simple, this rice is always prepared with attention to detail to ensure the perfect texture and taste.

Versatile and Perfect for Pairing

White Rice is incredibly versatile and can be served with a variety of Lebanese dishes. It pairs perfectly with everything from grilled meats like kebabs and chicken, to stews such as lamb or chickpea dishes. It’s also an excellent side to mezze spreads, helping to balance out the richness of dips like hummus or baba ghanoush. Whether enjoyed as part of a larger meal or served as a side on its own, this rice provides a comforting, neutral backdrop to the bold and aromatic flavours of Middle Eastern cuisine.
