Kolam rice, also known as “Kullakar rice” or “Kolam,” is a variety of medium-grain rice primarily grown in India. It’s particularly popular in South Indian cuisine and is often used for making idli, dosa, and various rice dishes. Kolam rice is known for its aroma and slightly sticky texture when cooked, making it ideal for absorbing flavors in curries and gravies. It’s also considered a healthy option due to its nutritional profile.
