Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup basmati rice
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 8 to 10 * red chillies
  • 1 egg
  • 1 small carrot chopped finely
  • 1/4 cup cabbage chopped lengthwise
  • 1/8 cup capsicum chopped finely
  • 2 teaspoon garlic chopped finely
  • 1 heaped teaspoon schezwan sauce / red chilli paste
  • 1 teaspoon spring onion white part
  • 2 teaspoon spring onion green part
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt to taste

Note : I made the red chilli paste in bulk as I used the paste for other few recipes too.I used just 1 teaspoon of red chilli paste for this recipe.

    Instructions

    • Soak red chillies in little hot water for an hour, transfer it along with water to a mixer jar then grind it to a fine paste, set aside.
    • Pressure cook rice with enough water for 3 to 4 whistles.
    • Fluff the rice, add little oil and set aside.
    • In a pan heat oil – add chopped garlic and spring onion white part, sauté for a minute.
    • Then add onion sauté till it turns transparent.
    • Add chilli paste, soya sauce then add carrot and cabbage and sauté in medium high flame for 2mins.
    • Then lower the flame and sauté for few mins until the vegetables shrink then add capsicum and sauté for 2mins.
    • Finally add egg, scramble it well.
    • Now add required salt and pepper powder. Sauté for a minute, then add cooked rice.
    • Toss it well finally add spring onions green part toss it well and cook for 2mins.
    • Garnish with chopped spring onions and Serve Schezwan Egg Fried Rice hot with your choice of side dish or any manchurian.

    Notes

    • Use freshly ground pepper for a great flavour.
    • Sauteing the veggies in high flame gives a nice smoky flavour and also helps retain its crunchiness without the raw smell.
    • I soaked rice for 15 mins then pressure cooked which yields soft grains separate rice.
