Lemon Rice
I found this recipe when I was looking for any side dishes for Greek food. Lemon rice? I first thought it doesn’t work because lemon is sour and doesn’t go with rice. Well I was so wrong.
The ingredients consist lemon, rice, onion and butter.
The lemon cuts the richness of the butter, and the lemon enhances the sweetness of the onion. It is perfect for the side of meat dishes or just eat as is.
