Salads, with chicken and fish – both raw and briefly stewed. Fantastic in vegetable dishes, such as Indonesian sajoer. It can also be added to lemonade and fruit juices or ice cream and other sweet desserts for a fresh taste. Preparation tip: stew lemon basil only briefly to prevent loss of flavour. Or better, yet, sprinkle the cut, chopped or torn leaves over the dish just before serving.
