Lemon Rice Done Differently

Instructions

  1. Mix the rice with the juice of the squeezed lemon and let it steep for at least 3 hours. Stir every now and then.
  2. Then cook the rice in vegetable stock or some salted water and the bay leaf until cooked. The lemon stock is added to the water.
  3. If a more yellow color is desired (I think that visually emphasizes the lemon taste and the rice looks nicer), you can add a little saffron to the rice or to the water.
  4. In any case, this lemon rice tastes different than if lemon juice or zest is added after cooking. It is very aromatic, but not acidic.
  5. It tastes very good with grilled vegetables, fish and seafood or e.g., to a lamb curry.
