Lemon grass rice Recipe
In my family we eat rice frequently. Most of the time I cook plain rice or fried rice. Today I tried to add a twist and decided to try lemon grass rice. I had tried it once in Thailand and really liked it. After I cooked it I was able to taste lemongrass in every bite of rice. I served this rice with Tofu minced meat.
