Orange Sesame Rice

This dish is great with a fish dish. Perhaps you would like it with one of my fish recipes! I guess you would call this marketing for my recipes. Serve it with your own favorite recipe. It is good with chicken too.

I had this for lunch today, and thought it was nice. I don't think I've quite got the knack of zesting yet, because I took ages to zest the orange, and yet it tasted slightly bitter in the recipe. The sesame seeds are a nice addition, though I felt this dish could do with a few more spices.10Reply
