Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 200 grams mushrooms
  • 3 cups cooked basmati rice
  • 1 tablespoon garlic finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon spring onion stem finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon spring onion green
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup onion
  • 1/2 cup capsicum
  • 1 teaspoon soya sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chilli sauce
  • 1 teaspoon pepper powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vinegar
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil - add 200 grams mushrooms cleaned and chopped.
  • Saute in medium high flame. It leaves out water keep sauteing.
  • Saute until it becomes dry, remove to a bowl and set aside.
  • Now heat 2 tablespoon olive oil - add 1 tablespoon garlic, 1 teaspoon spring onion stem and 1/2 teaspoon ginger.
  • Saute until golden.
  • Add 1/2 cup onion, 1/2 cup capsicum saute in high flame for a minute. It should be crunchy not too soft.
  • Add sauteed mushrooms along with 1 teaspoon soya sauce, 1 teaspoon chilli sauce, salt to taste, 1 teaspoon pepper powder and 1/2 teaspoon vinegar.
  • Give a quick saute for few seconds in high flame.
  • Add 3 cups cooked basmati rice.
  • Mix it well then finally add 1 tablespoon spring onion green.
  • Toss the pan in high flame. Mushroom fried rice is ready!
  • Enjoy it hot!

Notes

  • Don't skip spring onions as it gives a good amount of chinese flavor to the fried rice.
  • Use freshly ground pepper for a great flavor.
  • Mushroom cooks faster so just saute them for few mins that is enough. Do not overcook.
  • Chopping the veggies very fine helps in cooking faster. Sauteing the veggies in high flame gives a nice smoky flavor and also retains its crunchiness without the raw smell.
  • You can even add little chopped beans along with carrot and cabbage.
  • I soaked basmati rice for 15 mins then pressure cooked for 1:2 ratio(rice:water) for 2 whistles in medium flame.
  • Make sure to fluff the rice and spread it with little olive oil to make the grains separate. Allow it to rest at least for 30 mins before adding.
  • I don't use ajino motto, but if you prefer you can add a pinch of it at the final stage.
  • Do not add more soya sauce than mentioned amount else your fried rice color will be on the darker side also the flavor will be very strong.
