Veg fried Rice -Bachelor's Cooking

Fried rice is an easy and a healthy dinner that is perfect for a busy weeknight! It is a staple in our household. We have it at least once a week. You can substitute any vegetables you have on hand.  It’s a super simple recipe that really delivers on flavor. It’s also a great way to use up any leftover rice. It’s quick and easy and deliciously satisfying. 

Recipe Type: Main Course

Cuisine:  Indian

Ingredients Oil – 2tbsp Bay leaf -2 nos Onions– 1 medium Ginger garlic paste – 1/2 tbsp. Green chili paste – 1/2 tbsp Vegetables – 150 g Soy sauce -2 tsp Cooked rice or jeeraka samba -3 cups Fried rice masala – 1 tbsp Salt -as needed.

Method

1. Add the oil to a frying pan with the chopped onion, masala paste and fry until the onions are softened.

2. Add the vegetables, soy sauce and fry along with the onions until the veggies are softened but still firm.

3. We are going to add fried rice masala powder at this stage.

4. Now add the cooked rice and give a toss so it doesn’t stick to the pan of the bottom.

5. Toss until everything is well mixed and heated through. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for 3-4 days

6. Serve it as is for a delicious main course

Notes

1. If you want this to be gluten-free then make sure to use a gluten-free soy sauce.

2. If you’re making rice from scratch, then just cook 1 cup (200g dry weight) of rice which will make around 4 cups of cooked rice and then use all of it in this recipe.

3. We used basmati rice but any rice will work great.
