VEGETABLE FRIED RICE RECIPE- CHINESE RECIPES

Fried rice is a favourite Chinese recipe favourite for most of us. It is so simple to make yet delicious rice.

Actually till few years back ie., before my marriage, I didn’t even know that we can make fried rice in home, and though it is something difficult to prepare. Later on while seeing the recipe I got surprised and it is that much easy to make.

But few things need to take care while making this fried rice to get perfect flavoured tasty rice. At the beginning, I have added more soy sauce which affected the taste and also the colour of the rice. Similarly vinegar too.

So later on, identified my mistakes and able to do almost perfect fried rice without ajinamoto. Actually I have never ever brought/used ajinamoto, though it enhances the taste and flavour of the recipes because of its health effects.

OK, now let’s move on to this recipe.

            *I used carrots, beans , cabbage ad capsicum

                                                                                   

PREPARATION:

Finely chop the spring onion white and green part and keep it aside.

Finely chop the garlic and set aside.

Soak the basmati rice in water for 20 minutes. Then cook the rice till it fluffy and let it cool down.

METHOD:

In a pan add oil and let it heat. Add the chopped garlic and spring onion white part. Saute well.

Then add the chopped veggies and saute in high flame. No need to add water. Saute in the oil itself without burning them. Add salt and saute.

After 2 minutes, when the veggies are almost cooked, but have to retain its crunchiness, add the vinegar and soy sauce. Stir well.

Then add the boiled basmati rice and mix well.

Finally add the pepper powder and mix well.

Then add the spring onion green part and stir well.

Serve hot with simple tomato sauce/green chilli sauce or with any Chinese gravy of your choice.

NOTES:

The rice should be fluffy and not mushy.

Adding more soy sauce and vinegar will spoil the taste and colour.

You can even add mushroom/sweet corn/peas along with other vegetables.

Sauting the vegetables in high heat will give nice smoky flavor to the fried rice.

Cruchy vegetables will give great taste to the fried rice.
