Veg stir fried rice (without masala)



This serves 2 people
Ingredients:
Carrot -1
capsicum- 1
potato -1
baby corn - 4
onion -1
green chillies - 3
salt as per taste
rice - 1 cup ( use flavored rice basmati/thai jasmine rice)
water
Procedure
Since we are not adding any flavour enhancers or masala it would be more tasty if flavoured rice is used. We can use basmati rice or thai jasmine rice or any other variety.
If using basmati rice. soak the rice for 1/2 hour before cooking with the ratio of rice to water 1: 1 1/2 . If basmati rice is soaked then the rice will be cooked with long grain how we see in hotels.
If using jasmine rice. no need to soak cook with ratio 1:1, as it might be sticky if more water is added.
Use long grained rice for this variety.
Cook the rice and fluff it with fork and keep aside.
I have cut all the vegetables into thin long pieces, you can cut your vegetables as you wish. can add leeks, spring onions, beans or other veggies if wanted.
take a big wok so that there is space to fry it properly.
add 2 tsbpn of oil. once oil is heated add green chillies, onions and fry it till transluscent.
add the remaining vegetables and fry it for 5-10 mins. you can also cook with closed lid for 5 mins and without lid for 10 mins so that the moisture is not there.
add salt to the veggies and mix it well.
Once the veggies are cooked add the rice and mix it properly. Keep in high flame and fry with continuously sauteing it for 2-3 mins.
