How to make Veg Schezwan Fried Rice at home - Schezwan Fried Rice Recipe

This is an easy dinner idea for the family. If you have schezwan fried rice masala available at home then within ten minutes you can prepare this tasty dish. If you are in a hurry don't try making schezwan sauce at home as it is bit time consuming.

To prepare schezwan fried rice you require the below ingredients.

Cooked Rice - For 2 people. (You can use basmati rice or white rice. I used white rice)
Chopped vegetables - 1 cup (I used beans, carrot, capsicum)
Onion - 1
Green chillies - 3
Ching's miracle schezwan fried rice masala - 1 n 1/2 tsp
oil - as required
salt - as required.

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.

Chop the onion and green chillies and keep it aside.

Heat a kadai and pour oil into it. Add chopped onion and saute for a minute. Add green chilli followed by chopped vegetables. Let the vegetable get cooked for 2 minutes. The vegetable should be crunchy so don't cover it while cooking.

Add the Ching's schezwan masala into this vegetable mix and stir properly for another 1 minute. Add salt also. Add cooked rice to this and mix well.

Add 1/2 tsp Chilli vinegar and 1/2 tsp soy sauce to this mix. This step is optional as you are already using schezwan masala.

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

Now serve it hot with sauce or any manchurian of your choice.

Note:-
You can garnish it with green spring onions for better taste.
