We are loving tmx “fried rices” at the moment. Its so easy and makes a lot. I thought I would experiment last night. I’m not sure why I do as it often ends in disaster but this was surprisingly a success!
The flavours were quite subtle. I was worried it would be too powerful or hot but it wasn’t. The lime made it very refreshing.
