Ingredients:
2 cup Basmati rice / jasmine rice / long grain rice
1 Medium red +yellow capsicum, washed, deseeded ,cut into julienes
1 Medium green capsicum, washed, deseeded and finely chopped
3 Spring onions, washed and sliced ,greens chopped ( keep half reserved for garnishing)
1/4 cup Carrot, washed, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup purple cabbage (u can use green cabbage too)
1/4 Cup French beans, washed and finely chopped
1/4 cup moong sprouts
1/2 tbsp green Chili sauce
2 tbsp Soya sauce
2-3 tbsp schezwan sauce home made (adjust amount as per your taste levels)
1 tbsp Vinegar /lemon juice
1/4 tsp Salt to taste
1 inch ginger chopped
8-10 Garlic chopped
1-2 green chilli chopped
1 tsp sugar,salt as needed
3 tbsp oil
Method:
1.Pick, wash rice in enough water and drain for 10-15 minutes . Boil water, add 1tsp oil ,rice and little salt.
2.Cook rice on low heat till rice is tender.Take care not to overcook the rice. Each grain of rice should be separate.
3.Chop all veggies &ginger garlic & keep aside
4.When rice is done add 1 tsp oil ,spread in a big plate , fluff it gently with a fork & keep under fan.
7.Heat oil in a kadhai / large pan and stir fry chopped chillies,garlic & ginger on a high flame
8. Next mix all the chopped vegetables & saute very fast for 1 minute .
9.Take care that vegetables are not overdone, they should be crisp. next add soya,chilli, schezwan sauce ,sugar & mix well .Add rice & mix properly .
10.Mix salt ,vinegar and pepper to taste. taste rice and add schezwan sauce if required .
11.Reduce gas flame and Cook the schezuan veg fried rice for 2 minutes and serve hot.
12..Garnish it with green part of spring onions & spring onion flower & serve hot with veg manchurian veg balls in schezwan sauce .
Tips:
1 . Add one & half cup of water to 1 cup rice so as to prepare fine rice.
2. Chinese dishes are prepared on a high flame.
3. Vegetables have to be sauted fast taking care not to overcook.
4. Just freshly cooked rice is hot, steamy, very moist and a little sticky. All of those things would make a very clumpy and soggy fried rice. Thats why day-old rice makes the best fried rice (storing in the refrigerator dries out the rice).
5. I almost always use BASMATI Rice for fried rice
6 If you feel rice is less spicy add more schezwan sauce after adding rice .& mix well
7. use salt carefully as sauces already contain salt
Wow this look really delectable. Thanks for this wonderful post.
