Recipe Tips

To ensure that your rice turns out fluffy and not sticky, make sure you rinse the rice well before cooking it. Also, let the rice sit for 5 minutes after cooking before fluffing it with a wooden spoon. This will help the rice to absorb any excess moisture and fluff up nicely. Finally, make sure to remove the lemongrass stalk before serving as it is tough and not edible.
