This is slightly different from regular lemon rice. This colorful lemon rice with sweetcorn looks very nice and attractive (not as in the below pick! I couldn't take a good pick this time :( ) Especially, children will love it a lot :) I tasted this kind of lemon rice for the first time at my sister-in law's place and liked it a lot. I learned it from her and it has become a common lunch box item at my home these days.

Preparation time: 40 - 45 minutes

Servings: 2

Ingredients:

Rice (uncooked) - 1 1/2 cup

Sweet corn (fresh or frozen) - 3/4 cup

Method:

Wash the rice thoroughly and cook them. Don't make it too smooth and sticky.

Spread the cooked rice on a wide plate and allow to cool.
