Rice, brown, easy cook, raw

Brown easy-cook rice is a wholegrain cereal that has been processed to reduce cooking time. The figures here refer to the raw, uncooked rice. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 82g per 100g, alongside 7.5g of protein, 3.5g of fibre and 115mg of magnesium.

Carbohydrate provides energy, while fibre supports normal bowel function. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function. Rice absorbs water during cooking, so cooked rice contains less energy and fewer nutrients per gram than the raw rice described here. Salt added during cooking or in sauces will affect the salt content of the finished dish. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
