Chinese Egg Fried Rice
Indo-chinese has an unique flavour.Very tasty indeed.Chennai's roadside fastfoods are ultimate spots to have fried rice and chilli beef.But the problem is they add Msg like water which gives that smell and taste.So to compromise between taste and health,add no more than a teaspoon of ajinamoto and add it no more than once every week.You can do this without adding msg too.But believe me it makes a difference.
Ingredients:
***********
Basmati rice - 1cup
Peas -1/4 cup
carrot - 1/4 cup
(get the peas and carrots combo in the frozen section..makes the job easier)
capsicum-1/2
onion -1
garlic pieces (or) garlic powder
Spring onions
eggs-2
Pepper
Soysauce
salt
Ajinamoto - 1 tsp
Chilli garlic sauce (you get this in the asian aisle) - 1tsp-this gives more heat and flavor -optional
Method:

Cook the rice 1:11/2 ratio in rice cooker.Cook it before 1-2 hrs before making the fried rice.As soon as the rice cooker goes in warm mode,plug off and open the lid..fluff and let it cool.Heat oil in a big wide pan.keep in high heat.Add the garlic pieces or garlic powder.Add onion,capsicum,peas and carrot.Saute them well.Add the 2 eggs now(In a wide pan scramble the egg in one corner before you mix with vegetables..if you are not using wide pan add already scrambled eggs) and cook.mix it all well.Add soysauce,chilli garlic sauce,pepper,ajinamoto and salt.Now add the rice and saute it well for about 10 mins in good heat.Garnish with spring onions.
