Vegetable Fried Rice

Vegetable Fried Rice

Fried rice - its such a simple rice dish, not too strong, yet flavourful. colourful for the eyes and satisfies the taste buds. if it is accompanied by some perfect side dish like any manchurian gravies.. it can satisfy your soul too !

i make fried rice with basic ingredients required for fired rice. i use just 2 sauces.

i try to make cauliflower manchurian as side. Even simple potato chips will be great. 

do not over saute the vegetables. keep it crunchy. that adds kick to the texture of the dish. this is one dish where my daughter never fishes out the vegetables. in our house we all prefer this fried rice with more vegetables.. hence lot of crunchiness.
