Lemon Rice
by:
Lemon Rice also called chitranna is very popular South-Indian recipe that can be served for breakfast/lunch/dinner. You can use left over rice for this recipe. I must say this is one of the simplest and the best recipe for your lunch-box. I have served this rice with one of my favorite Jalapeno Snack
