Ingredients:
  • 300.00 gm jasmine rice
  • 1 stalk lemongrass, trimmed, bruised
  • 165ml can coconut milk
  • 1/2 small red onion, halved, thinly sliced
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber, halved, thinly sliced
  • 250.00 ml bean sprouts, trimmed

  • 1 small green oak lettuce, leaves separated, torn
  • 200g grape tomatoes, halved
  • 86.63 gm lime juice

  • 2cm piece fresh ginger, peeled, finely chopped
Instructions:
  • In a heavy-based saucepan over medium-high heat, combine rice, lemongrass, coconut milk, and 2 1/2 cups cold water. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Season with salt and pepper. Let it sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
