Made this to go with the awesome Malaysian chicken curry. A good mix of flavours - 20 Aug 2009
This was easy and very tasty. I used basmati rice also and dry curry powder. I didn't have lemon grass, but did top with green onions. - 02 Aug 2007 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This is a very easy recipe and tastes really good. The rice when cooked has a mild yet flavourful and authentic Thai taste. It will compliment any spicy curry like a Thai red curry. However the only modification I would make is to add about half tsp of salt and maybe another lemon grass stalk. Will definitely be making it again. - 19 Feb 2010 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
