A soupy, porridge-y superfood made with spices, fiber-rich mung beans, and basmati rice.

WHY WE LOVE IT

BASMATI RICE

With an extra long grain, basmati rice is a favorite because of its slightly sweet flavor and heavenly aroma.

Split Mung Bean with Skin

Meet your new favorite legume. This is a vegetarian superfood, high in fiber and super easy to digest.

CLOVES

A bold spice with an assertive, dark aroma that aids in digestion and boosts immunity.

Cardamon

A beloved spice that evokes nostalgia and smells like something between eucalyptus, mint, and pepper.
  • Promotes digestion and gut health
  • Rich in potassium, magnesium, folate, fiber and vitamin B6
  • Mung Bean and Basmati Rice together make a complete protein, providing you with all nine essential amino acids the body needs
  • Excellent source of fiber

HOW TO COOK?

1
In a medium-sized pot, boil 4 cups of water. Once water starts to boil, add the Paro packet.
2
Cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring often until mung beans and rice are tender.
3
Add a pinch of salt. Stir and serve.

paro TIP

Substitute water with vegetable broth for added flavor. Add fresh onion, black pepper, or cilantro. We like ours with Paro Tarka.

    Easy to make and tasty

    I very much enjoyed this product as well. It was quick and absolutely delicious. As I’m not a big fan of porridge, I actually added a little less water to give it a firmer consistency akin to Egyptian kochari, which also has chickpeas. Thanks again for all you do. I will definitely purchase this again.

    DELICIOUS

    My new favorite dish! I am usually a very simple eater and was nervous to try this, but it was honestly so flavorful and delicious. I also love the risotto-like texture. Def recommend!

    Delicious and healthy

    I made my Paro kitchari this morning as I wanted something warm for lunch and am trying to enjoy tasty but healthy lunches. This blew my mind. It has the right level of spice and I feel so proud of myself for bringing this to work. Will be buying more for sure!

    This tasted like it took way more effort than it actually took. Such a great idea! Will definitely be purchasing again.
