A quick fix rice dish to empty out leftover rice and veggies.
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Makes: 2-3 servings
Ingredients
2 cups cooked rice
1/2 onion, sliced (spring onions work best for Chinese food, but I did not have those, brown onions worked great)
1 carrot, juliennes
1/2 cup boiled peas
1 cup boiled broccoli florets
(you may add juliennes of capsicum, boiled corn or baby corn, any veggies of your choice)
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp oil
2 tsp vinegar
2-3 tbsp Chinese 5 spice powder (adjust as per taste)
Chinese sauces: green chili sauce, soy sauce, sweet chili sauce
Method
Boil rice with pinch of salt and few drops of oil. Keep aside to cool.
Chinese cooking is best done in a wok, throughout on high heat. So it will be best to keep all the ingredients handy.
Take oil in wok. Once it's hot, add the onions. Fry for 2-3 min. Add all the veggies one by one and keep frying.
Add half the 5 spice powder. Mix well.
Now add a tsp each of the sauces. Add rice. Stir well.
Add vinegar, salt, pepper and the 5 spice powder. Add more sauces to adjust as per taste.
You may garnish with spring onion greens.
