Starch Gelatinization During Cooking
When rice is boiled in excess water, the starch granules absorb water and swell.
At temperatures above 60–70°C the starch undergoes gelatinization,
forming a soft and easily digestible structure.

Improved Digestibility
The gelatinized starch and high water content make rice porridge easy to digest.
This is why it is commonly recommended during fever (without ghee), gastrointestinal illness,
and recovery from weakness.

Role of Ghee
Ghee provides concentrated energy and improves palatability.
The presence of fat also enhances the absorption of fat-soluble nutrients
and slows gastric emptying slightly, providing sustained energy.

Hydration and Electrolyte Support
Because rice porridge contains a large proportion of water,
it helps maintain hydration and provides small amounts of
electrolytes and easily available carbohydrates.
