Green Veggies Fried Rice (Yasai Chahan)

Serves - 2
Preparation time - 5-7 minutes
Cooking time - 5-7 minutes*

* Provided your rice is already ready. I prefer using rice from a day before. 


Ingredients:


  • Cooked Rice - 2 cups
  • Sesame Oil - 2 tbsp
  • Black Pepper - 1/2 tbsp
  • Soy Sauce - 1 1/2 tbsp
  • Eggs - 2
  • Salt to taste
  • Vegetables (finely chopped)
    • Spring Onions - 2
    • Cabbage - 1/2 cup
    • Celery - 1/4 cup
    • Lettuce - 1/2 cup
    • Green beans - 1/4 cup 



Directions:



  • Heat oil in a pan and add the green veggies and saute for 4-5 minutes.


  • In a bowl, take two eggs and whisk them properly. Add salt and pepper and then add this to the veggies in the pan.



  • Add the cooked rice to this and mix well. Make sure your eggs are still runny (and not properly cooked) when you add the rice. This will ensure that the rice are evenly coated with the egg. 

  • Once the rice are properly mixed, add the soy sauce and mix it thoroughly  Saute for a couple of minutes. 

  • Add salt and pepper as per your taste. Serve hot. 

Notes:

  • You can use any oil instead of sesame oil but the kind of flavor that sesame oil imparts to chahan is unbeatable.
