Can we buy flattened rice here?

[VocalNeal]

I'd never heard of it before. I'll have to check in Tops.

I think it's an Indian thing, so Little India is going to be your place if anywhere.

Do they run it over with a steam roller to flatten it? Or is it like a fettucine noodle? Guess I will have to do some research.  So here it is and it sounds interesting 

 

Flattened rice is rice which is flattened into flat, light, dry flakes originating from the Indian subcontinent. Rice is parboiled before flattening so that it can be consumed with very little to no cooking

Sounds like much the same processing used to make rolled oats for quick porridge.
