About Lemon rice

Lemon Rice is a flavorful, tangy dish originating from South Indian cuisine. It is made by mixing cooked rice with aromatic spices like mustard seeds, turmeric, and curry leaves, combined with lemon juice for its signature bright taste. Often garnished with roasted peanuts and green chilies, this dish is renowned for its simplicity and versatility. Lemon Rice is naturally gluten-free and a good source of energy due to its carbohydrate content. The addition of turmeric brings anti-inflammatory properties, while lemon juice provides a boost of vitamin C. However, its nutritional profile can vary with the use of oil or added toppings. Commonly consumed as a light meal or side dish, Lemon Rice is both refreshing and satisfying, representing the vibrant flavors of Indian cooking.
