Grapefruit Rice

Two days back, i got some grapefruits for making some fruit salads, but unfortunately they were very tangy and none at home wanted to have them either as salad or as juice..Finally i went for making this rice which i got from Sailaja's Grapefruit Rice, fortunately her recipe helped me a lot and those tangy grapefruits turned out as delicious super tangy rice..A prefect lunch when served along with potato fries, thanks to Sailaja for sharing this great recipe..we loved it a lot..
