  6. Drain and add to the rice, tossing to mix well.
  7. Add the remaining salad ingredients and toss to mix.

  9. Add the sugar, stirring to dissolve thoroughly.
  10. Add the lemon grass, garlic, and chile and bring to a boil.
  11. Lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  15. Add another tablespoon of dressing if desired.
  16. Line a large platter with lettuce.
  17. Mound the salad on top.
