You’ll need:

  • white basmati rice

  1. I really like this recipe! I would like to try it in the next days for some powder. But I have two questions: is it also working if I don’t use a food processor but grind the rice manually? And can I let it dry maybe on the heating because there is no sun?

    1. Thank you! 😀 Yes, you can probably dry it on the heating or in the oven. And you can try grinding the rice manually in a mortar, but rice is very hard to grind. Hope this helps!
