About Avalakki

Avalakki, also known as flattened rice or poha, is a versatile and nutritious staple in Indian cuisine. Made by parboiling rice grains and pressing them flat, it retains nutrients while offering a quick-cooking option for meals or snacks. Avalakki is rich in carbohydrates, providing a steady energy source, and contains essential minerals like iron and magnesium. It is low in fat and naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for various dietary needs. Often prepared with vegetables, spices, nuts, and herbs, Avalakki dishes can be customized for an enhanced nutrient profile and balanced meal. However, toppings like fried garnishes or excess oil may increase calorie content, so moderation is key. With its light texture and adaptability, Avalakki is a healthy, flavorful ingredient well-loved across South India and beyond for breakfast and snack recipes.
