Lemon Rice Recipe

Sometimes when we get bored by eating plain rice,then lemon rice is a quick, easy and tasty replacement.
The distinctive taste of lemon and peanuts with rice will give your taste buds a new roller coaster. Whenever I am in hurry and still want some quick, healthy and spicy food,  lemon rice is the good option. My kids love to eat lemon rice at their school lunch box too.
Lemon rice goes very well with Rasam and Sambhar.
