This recipe is something that resembles veg pulao but is totally different in taste as compared to vegetable pulao.
Just the process of cooking can create a wide difference in taste.
In vegetable pulao we saute all the vegetable and add the raw rice, cook everything all together.
In stir fried rice, add extra oil than usual, saute all the vegetables, add cooked rice, keep tossing it until rice slightly changes its colour. Thats it, This recipe tastes so good that it kind of feels addictive to have more.
No need of any side dish or gravy for this. just some indian style salad and raita would do much more than enough.
Left over rice can also be used for preparing this recipe.
The procedure :
- In a wide non-stick wok add oil, all the whole spices, fry onion till golden brown.
- Add ginger garlic paste, slit green chilli, fry till raw smell has gone. Add the vegetables, keep all of them finely chopped and equal in size. fry till golden brown. add salt.
- Add cooked basmati rice, toss till colour changes. garnish with finely chopped coriander leaves.
- serve with raita.
- Try to use Indian desi vegetables to achieve the authentic flavour.
