Tolly Boy easy cook rice is specially parboiled, which keeps the grains separate and fluffy when cooked, without the need for rinsing.

Tolly Boy Easy Cook Long Grain rice is a delicious accompaniment served hot or cold with savoury dishes. Try using chicken or vegetable stock instead of water to cook the rice, or season the water with herbs or spices for flavoured and lightly coloured rice.

Add a little vegetable oil, butter or sesame oil to cooked rice for extra flavour and to glaze the rice.
