Chinese Egg Fried Rice

This is the Indo-chinese style of making fried rice. One might ask what is Indo-chinese.. well, it is the indianised style of cooking chinese food! I love indo-chinese food and have gone out and tried out different restaurants around boston who claim to make good indo-chinese. I will soon be posting more recipes...


Ingredients:
  • Green beans cut in 1/2 inch - 1 cups
  • Diced Carrots - 1 cups
  • Scallions (Spring Onions) - 3-4 stalks
  • Green Peas - 1 cup
  • Egg - 1
  • Rice - 2 cups
  • Onions - 1 large
  • Oil - 2 tablespoon
  • Soy sauce - 2 tablespoon
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon (to taste)
  • Pepper - 1 teaspoon
  • a pinch of msg (optional)

Preparation:

Par boil the rice and keep aside. Slice the onions, chop the scallions, blanch the carrots and beans.

Method:

Heat some 2 table spoons of oil in a wok. Throw in the onions. Stir fry lightly and a minute later add the blanched veggies, green peas and scallions. Add salt and msg at this time. Dont over cook it.. It is good to leave the veggies a little crunchy. Beat the eggs and add to the wok. Keep on stirring the wok so the eggs cook and crumble. Add the par boiled rice and soy sauce and stir fry for 2-3 minutes. Add pepper and stir fry for another minute and now you are ready for a tasty dish..
Enjoy!
