How To Grow Lemongrass

Lemongrass or also known as serai in Malay...commonly used in Asian dish..
one of my favourite ingredients in cooking...

This is my first lemongrass in a container...the growth rate is not something that I'm proud of...lol....too slow,i think...

Grown from lemongrass cuttings that I've bought from local supermarket...soak it in water until  roots developed and transfer it into pots....

So,here it is.. My first lemongrass...;-)

Blurrrr image taken from my phone during morning rush to work...:P

  1. That sounds almost too easy! I wonder if Lemongrass would grow OK here in England... Might be too cold for it.

  3. HK,
    Saya pon buat gitu jugak. Pastu ada sekali Mak saya pos mai serai and bila sampai sini, siap berakar dah. Terus tanam gitu. Hehe!

    Kalo daun serai tetiba jadi warna maroon gitu, apa sebabnye ek?
