Forbidden rice or black rice (in Tamil Kavuni arisi). Histroy says the emperors of China kept it forbidden from common people. But there is a history in Chettinadu of Tamilnadu.
It's been served specially for bridegrooms on the occasion of marriage to make the bridegroom special. The name in Tamil calls out as Kavuni arisi. Chettinadu Kavuni arisi sweet is a very famous dish. ( but I chose to do a sugar free dish)
This rice naturally has a nutty flavor. When combined with coconut milk...it turns to be goodness delicious ❤️ ❤️ ❤️..
