Fried Rice

*. Ingredients:>

Basmati rice 1 cup

Carrot 1

Beans ( I used baby
beans)12.

Baby corn 5

Pepper ( white preferred) 1 tsp

Spring onion 4 sprig

Olive oil 3 tblsp

Sugar 1/2 tsp

          *.Method:>

1. Cook rice with 1 & 1/2 cup water and
separate the grains. Cut the veggies very
finely so that it will get cooked easily in
short period of time. Heat a broad pan
with olive oil. When its hot, add the
veggies with sugar and fry for 2 minutes
or until its cooked,but retains its
crunchiness.

2. Lastly add pepper, spring onion and fry
for a minute. Add cooked, rice and stir till
it gets heated up.

*Notes:>

You can replace olive oil with
sesame oil.

You can try the same with left
over rice by keeping it
overnight in fridge.

You can add ajinomotto and
soya sauce in this same
recipe.

I added black pepper, but
white pepper is recommended
as it gives a colourful result!
Adding sugar to retain colour.
Use best quality basmati rice
as the rice flavor plays a main
role in this recipe.

Veggies should not be over
cooked for this mainly, so
make sure its just crunchy.
