INDIAN STYLE VEG FRIED RICE ( Without sauces)

Fried Rice is one of the most popular street food across India. Fried rice is most commonly served and enjoyed with Gobi Manchurian as side dish. This quick fried rice can be cooked in many ways and lots of varieties are made and served in almost all of the fast food joints. 
I make this recipe without using any Chinese sauces and my family enjoys it. This recipe will taste exactly like fried rice and is super healthy as we are not using any sauces or vinegar.
My secret to make it taste super delicious is the use of ultimate Maggie Magic masala in this recipe.

Recipe:
(Serves 3-4)
Ingredients:

  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 2 medium onions chopped 
  • 1 large Capsicum chopped
  • 2 medium carrots chopped
  • 1/4 cup corns
  • 1/2 cup chopped green beans
  • 2 cups basmati rice
  • 1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
  • 4-5 green chilies long cut
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground white pepper
  • 2 packets Maggie magic masala ( Rs. 5 each )
  • 4 tbsp finely chopped spring onions 
  • Water as required ( to cook rice )
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Salt to taste
Method:
  • Wash and soak the rice for 30 mins.
  • In a pan add soaked rice , salt to taste and water as required to cook the rice . We have to cook till 70% done , not completely.
  • Once done , strain the rice and keep aside.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or wide deep frying pan until smoking hot, and add ginger garlic paste along with chilies - cook for a min.
  • Now add the chopped onion, capsicum , corns , beans and carrots and fry five minutes stirring often.
  • Add salt to taste , white ground pepper ,maggie magic masala and mix until well combined.
  • Now add the 70% cooked rice along with half of the spring onions and lemon juice - cook for another 2-3 mins covered.
  • Once done , serve with the finely sliced spring onion greens sprinkled over on rice .

Notes:
I have used freshly cooked rice in this recipe, but you can use leftover rice as well.
