Temple-style lemon rice recipe

In today’s blog, I am going to share the recipe of Temple-style lemon rice recipe. I love visiting the temple with my family and friends. I get more positive energy and good vibes in temples. And also I love to savor the lemon rice served at temples as prasadam. The lemon rice served in temples has a different flavor and taste. I and my friends used to go temple near our college every day, just to enjoy different rice items served as prasadam. Lemon rice was our favorite. One day with curiosity, I asked the person serving us lemon rice to devotees for the recipe and for my luck, he shared the recipe with me. I tried it at home and guess what it was as tasty as it is served in temples. So, let me share the recipe with you…
