The Aachi Premium Lemon Rice Powder 100g is one of the most budget-friendly “instant” rice mixes available. While Aachi often sells this in smaller 20g and 50g packs, the 100g pack is the go-to for families or meal prepping.
As of early 2026, here are the prices you can expect:
Price Breakdown

Why “Premium”?
The “Premium” version (as opposed to their standard lemon rice powder) usually contains a higher concentration of dried lemon juice extract and a more generous amount of gram dhal (chana dal) and mustard seeds, giving you more crunch and a sharper tang without needing to add extra seasoning.
Quick Prep Guide
One 100g pack is enough for about 1kg to 1.2kg of cooked rice.
-
Rice: Use cooled, pre-cooked rice (it prevents the grains from breaking).
-
Temper: Heat a little oil with dried red chilies and curry leaves
-
Mix: Stir in the powder, then toss in the rice.
-
Wait: Let it sit for 5 minutes before serving; the flavors “bloom” as the rice cools slightly.
