Easy Egg fried rice recipe / Indo-Chinese Recipe

Egg fried rice is one of my all time favorite and easy to prepare dish. Recipe dedicated to all fried rice lovers :)


Ingredients:-

Cooked Rice - For 2 people. (You can use basmati rice or white rice. I used basmati rice)
Chopped vegetables - 1 cup (I used beans, carrot, capsicum)
Onion - 1
Green chillies - 2
Garlic pod thinly sliced - 2 tsp
Ginger thinly sliced - 2 tsp

Pepper powder - 1 tbsp
Chilli flakes - 1 tsp

Soya sauce - 2 tsp
Chilli Vinegar - 1 tbsp
Chilli sauce - 2 tsp

oil - as required
salt - as required.

Egg - 3

Take a vessal and beat the eggs and add pepper, salt and chilli flakes to it and keep it aside for at least 10 minutes. Chop the onion, vegetables and green chillies and keep it aside.



Cook the rice with little oil and salt in it. Don't over cook the rice else it will be sticky. Once the rice is cooked spread it in a wide plate and let it cool for sometime.


Heat a kadai and pour 1 tbsp of oil and add the egg mixture and stir continuously. Once it is done remove from heat and transfer to a bowl. Egg will cook very fast it will take only 1 or 2 minutes.



Heat the same kadai and pour oil into it. Add thinly sliced ginger garlic and saute till it change color slightly. Add chopped onion and saute for a minute. Add green chilli followed by chopped vegetables, salt and pepper powder. Let the vegetable get cooked for 2 minutes. The vegetable should be crunchy so don't cover it while cooking.




Add the prepared egg to this mix and add Chilli vinegar,  soy sauce and chilli sauce to this mix.  Mix properly.

Check salt and pepper. If required add as per taste. Add cooked rice to this and mix well.



As a last step add green spring onions and mix well.


Switch of the flame and cover the kadai and let it rest for five minutes.

Easy Egg dum Biriyani

An egg dum biriyani is an excellent weekend meal with raita and pappd. The ingredients to prepare this dish is as below.

Ingredients:-

Basmathi Rice - 2 cup
Egg boiled and peeled  - 3
Onion - 2
Tomato - 2
Green Chilli - 4
Coriander Leaves crushed - 2 tbsp
Pudina leaves crushed - 2 tbsp
Ginger Garlic paste - 2 tbsp
Curd - 1 cup
Chilli Powder - 1 tsp
Turmeric Powder - 1/2 tsp
Pepper Powder - 1/2 tsp
Biriyani Masala - 2 tbsp (Optional)
Garam Masala - 1/2 tsp
Lime - 1
Salt - As required
oil - 2tbsp / as required
Cloves - 3
Cinnamon stick - 2
Cardomom Green - 2
Cardomom black - 2
Dried Chillies - 3
Bay Leaves - 2
Fennel Seeds - 1 tsp




Method to prepare Rice:

Cook basmathi rice in water with bay leaves, cloves, cinnamon, cardomom, salt and oil. Drain the water once the rice is almost 70% cooked and keep it aside.

Method to prepare biriyani Mix:

Heat kadai and pour oil in it. Saute the remaining garam masala's like bay leaves, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, Fennel seeds. Now add the chopped onion and saute till the onions are soft.

Add the ginger garlic paste and green chillies and saute till you get a nice aroma. Now add tomatoes and saute till its soft.

Once this is ready add crushed coriander leaves and mint leaves and saute for a minute. Add turmeric powder, chilli powder, salt and Biriyani Masala powder(I used Everest biriyani Masala). Stir it for a minute and add curd into this mix. Stir it continuously till the oil get separated from the masala. Check the salt.




Peel the eggs and give small vertical cuts on all the sides of the egg and add to this mix. Cover the pan for a minute. Switch off the flame.

Layering and Steaming the biriyani:

Now take a wide kadai and first pour some of above prepared biriyani mix into it. Layer it with some of the cooked rice and sprinkle little bit powdered garam masala (I used Everest). Cut lemon and squeeze little bit on top. Now again layer with biriyani mix and then rice. Repeat this step until all the rice and biriyani mix gets over.

Optional Step:- Take a kadai lid and seal it with aatta on the edges in a way that when you cover the kadai with this lid the steam will not go out of the kadai. If you are in a hurry then just cover the kadai with lid and follow the remaining steps.




Now cook this on a medium heat for two minutes and then put a tava on the gas stove and keep this kadai on top of that. Cook in a low flame for 10 minutes and switch off. Remove the lid after five minutes and enjoy the tasty egg dum biriyani with your favorite raita or pappad.



Tips:-

Add fried raisins or cashews to the biriyani to make it rich.
The last step layering and steaming can be done in oven also. Instead of Kadai use an oven proof vessel.
You can scramble 2 eggs and mix it with rice while layering, this gives a very good taste.
You can cut the egg into half and add to the rice.

Egg Parata or chapati egg Pizza? -- whatever, but it is very tasty

This is an awesome tasty breakfast you can prepare with very less time. This taste fantastic and kids will love this for sure. I named it egg parata J

First kneed the aatta/wheat flour same as for chapathi. I believe everybody knows how to make the dough for chapathi. Else please refer my post “Beginners guide :- How to knead the perfect dough for chapathi”.

Now beat the eggs in a glass and add pepper powder, salt and then cut the onion, tomato and green chilli as small as possible (the same way we cut for preparing egg omelette) and mix with it. Mix everything nicely and keep it aside.

Take small balls of aatta and make 2 thin chapathi. Heat a tava and cook the chapathi till small blisters appear. Don’t overcook. Keep these two half cooked chapathi’s aside.



Take a tava and pour some oil and keep one of the half cooked chapathi on that. Now pour the egg mixture on top of the chapathi and keep the other chapathi  to cover it. Cover the pan and cook for 1 minute. Now turn the chapathi to the other side and cook.



Remove this cooked egg parata from the tava and keep it in a plate. Now cut the egg parata to 4 pieces and enjoy with tomato sauce. Isn’t it yummy????
