20 minutes
Lemon rice with milk is a delicate dish with a refreshing citrus note, rooted in Italian cuisine. Inspired by traditional risottos, this version features an airy texture and soft creaminess thanks to the milk. Lemon zest and juice add a tangy freshness, while turmeric provides a warm hue and appetizing golden color. A garnish of dill and green onions enhances the dish's aroma, making it an ideal complement to light vegetable or fish dishes. This rice is an exquisite combination of simple ingredients that offers a sense of comfort and sunny mood. A wonderful choice for those who appreciate soft creamy textures and refreshing citrus flavors!
