I am cooking an Indian rice tonight - Karuppu Kavuni rice. Online it is mostly equated to "black rice" and "forbidden rice". I am not sure this is correct (as incorrect info can propagate around the internet with lightning speed, so even seemingly reputable sources can have incorrect info)*.

In any case, and despite what the internet says, it's cooking requirements *seem* (on the label) much different to the usual "black rice" and "forbidden rice" - a long soaking plus a long cooking with a high water ratio.

I am going to try it in the instant pot so wish me luck! It'll be pretty much guess work.

* I wouldn't be surprised if sometimes forbidden/black rice is being sold as Karuppu Kavuni rice Worse things have happened.
