There's one dish that's very popular in the Chinese cuisine. It has to be egg fried rice. This also makes for a great lunchbox recipe. So let's get started. First, I'm going to cook the rice. For this, take a pot, add enough water. Once the water comes to a boil, add one teaspoon of salt. Next, add one cup of long grain basmati rice that's washed. Once the rice is completely cooked, strain it and keep it aside. Take a pan, add about two to three teaspoons of oil. So first, I'm going to scramble the eggs. So for this recipe, I'm using four eggs. Sprinkle a little salt, some pepper. As you can see, I've not overcooked the eggs because we'll be adding it to the rice and we're going to stir fry it again. So don't overcook the eggs so they become too dry. Turn off the stove and keep the egg scramble aside. Take a nice white pan or a wok, add two tablespoons of oil. Next, add a few chopped cloves of garlic. Next, add a piece of ginger, finely chopped. One medium sized onion, finely chopped. So I've taken one large red chili, finely chopped. Now this is optional. If you don't have red chili, you can add green chilies. To just increase the spice a little more, I'm going to add one large green chili, finely chopped. To this, add one small capsicum, finely chopped. Stir fry the vegetables on high flame for about two minutes. Next, add half teaspoon of salt, some crushed pepper. To this, I'm going to add two teaspoons of soy sauce. I have a few spring onions that have been thinly sliced. I'm just going to add those. Now add the scrambled eggs. So if you see the eggs are nice and moist, I've not cooked them too much. So make sure you cook the eggs while they're a little soft. Keep the flame on low and start adding the cooked basmati rice. So I'm using two spatulas to mix the rice. It's easier to mix it that way. Stir fry it on medium flame. Now you can see I've mixed everything together. It looks beautiful. Finally, I'm going to finish it off by adding some chopped spring onion greens. The egg fried rice is ready. Serve it hot. So this is a very good recipe that you can enjoy with some nice side dish. You can also eat it as is and definitely it's very quick to make. So do try this recipe and enjoy. You can get a copy of our first edition of the home cooking book on 21 flame.
