How long should you cook red cargo rice?

Red cargo rice, as the name suggests, is a red-coloured variety of rice. Although it is quite commonly used in South Indian households, it is originally a rice variety from Vietnam. While it is also known as biryani rice in some parts of India, it is quite different from short-grain rice.

Red cargo rice is a long-grained rice and so it requires a bit more cooking time compared to normal short-grained rice.
