I enjoyed the rice very much. Next time I will be either adding more lime or ginger in order to bring out the flavor even more and will add almonds. I didn't miss the meat or sauce you would normally add to rice. I had a grapefruit, this rice, and a few peanuts for a very satisfying meal. - 5/15/11
