Jasmine Rice with Lime & Cilantro

Trying to cook for three people when everyone has different tastes and aversions can be a challenge, at best. The end result, pretty much all the time, is making three separate dishes for each mealtime.

Keeping it Simple

Rice is one of the few sides that all of us eat; at least, if it is prepared in a way that everyone will eat it!

This one adds a twist to the usual boiled or steamed rice and it's received well enough that I can cook a large pot, portion and put it in the fridge to see all of us through at least two meals; perhaps more.

There's really nothing to it.
