I love to add cilantro to almost all dishes I make. It could be
because I was raised in North India and I love the flavor of
cilantro. You may have seen
different versions of cilantro lemon rice but mine is very
simple and I have used very less oil.
I served this rice with chicken tikka masala, recipe coming later this week.
Ingredients:
White/brown long rice: 2 cups
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt- to taste
Water- 4 cups
A handful of cilantro/ coriander leaves
Oil- 5 tsp
Method:
Boil water in a pot. Add salt, 2 tsp oil and rice and bring to boil over high flame.
Reduce the flame; cover and cook on low flame until rice is cooked. Remove from the flame and keep covered.
Mix chopped cilantro, lemon juice and remaining oil in a deep bowl. Add rice and toss well until rice is mixed.
Serve hot with a side dish of you choice.
Note: If you want you can add whole garam masalas when you cook the rice. I did not used because I wanted to get the real taste of lemon and cilantro.
See you all!
