Pamir Darbari Extra Long Rice 1kg – The Pride of Central Asian Cuisine
Named after the majestic Pamir mountains – the roof of the world, where Afghanistan, Tajikistan, and Pakistan meet – Pamir Darbari Rice carries the spirit of Central Asian culinary tradition in every grain. Darbari (درباری) means “of the royal court” – a name that speaks to the prestige and quality of this exceptional extra-long grain rice.
Pamir Darbari is an extra-long grain rice – longer and more slender than standard basmati – with a firm texture, clean flavour, and the ability to stay perfectly separate after cooking. It is the rice of choice for kabuli pulao, the national dish of Afghanistan, and for anyone who demands the very best from their rice.

What is Darbari Rice?
Darbari is a premium extra-long grain rice variety traditionally associated with royal and festive cooking across Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Central Asia. Its defining characteristics are:
-
Extra-long grains – visually impressive, elongating even further during cooking
-
Firm texture – holds its shape perfectly, ideal for pulao and biryani
-
Clean, neutral flavour – lets the spices and aromatics shine
-
Low starch release – grains stay separate, never clump
How to Cook Pamir Darbari Rice
Rinse 2–3 times until water runs clear. Soak for 20–30 minutes. Cook with a 1:1.5 ratio of rice to water. Bring to a boil, reduce to low heat, cover and simmer for 12–15 minutes. Rest 5–10 minutes before fluffing. Result: long, firm, perfectly separate grains.
