chinese fried rice

My husband took me to a Chinese fast food in my place. There was very less options for vegetarians and I preferred vegetable fried rice. It tasted really good and I wanted to try it from then. Today I had to do something quick and easy for lunch and I tried this fried rice and it came out really well. My husband liked it and appreciated me. This is really good for health that it has a lot of vegetables in it.

Ingredients:

Cold cooked rice - 4 cups
Any vegetables - 3 cups (options: carrot, frozen baby peas, Green onions, cabbage, bell pepper, broccoli, bean sprouts)
minced garlic - 1 tsp
Hot red pepper flakes - 1/2 tsp
Hot sauce - 1 tbsp (adjust to taste)
Soy sauce - 1 tbsp
Sesame oil - 2 tsp
Vegetable oil - 2 tsp
Salt to taste

Method of preparation:

Take rice in a bowl and remove any lumps with your fingers
Heat oil in a stir-fry pan, add chopped green onions and saute
Add minced garlic and rice to the pan and fry for 2 mins
Add hot sauce and soy sauce and combine well followed by the red pepper flakes
Fry them for well and add the vegetables
Keep on tossing till everything get mixed with each other and cooked not overcooked
Vegetables should be half or 3/4 th cooked and fried
Taste and add salt if required as soy sauce gives salty taste

Serve hot with chips/salad

Wordpress swallowed up my comments the first time I wrote it, so please excuse me in case this seems like a repetition

Firstly,thanks for the recipe, I’ve always wanted to make fried rice at home…My doubt is - you mentioned that the veggies need to be 3/4th cooked - do they need to be fried before adding to the rice?

Also, perhaps you could give us a recipe for a side dish as well that can be eaten along with fried rice?

Hi Divya, Thanks for ur comments

Hi apu, Thanks for ur comments. vegetables need to be added after rice and keep on frying them till they are 3/4th cooked. A good combination for this fried rice is chilli sauce. That is what is served in fast food also. Actually it has a great taste by itself.

Hi Lakshmi, Kalai and Uma, Thanks for ur comments.

Hi Mythreyee and Vanamala, Thanks for ur time and comments.
