VEGETABLE FRIED RICE-A healthy recipe. Easy to cook with minimal ingredients. I like this recipe for its simple yet delicious taste.
This is the recipe of my friend's mother.Good to pack for lunch.This recipe does not use any MSG.But it tastes like restaurant style fried rice.Adding one vegetable at a time along with pepper and salt required for that vegetable plays the trick.

Method:
1.Wash and soak basmati rice before cutting vegetables.
2. Cut every vegetable lengthwise into thin pieces.
3. In a pressure cooker cook the basmati rice with 1 1/2 cup of water (Update: 1 1/4 Cup for Royal Basmati Rice) for 1 cup of rice with some salt. Switch off the stove after the rice is cooked. Shift it to a plate and allow it to cool. Rice should not be sticky.
4.Heat a pressure pan and add oil. You can add oil generously or the rice would be too dry to eat.
5.Add ginger garlic paste and saute until the raw smell leaves.
6.Fry the vegetables one by one in an order by adding the vegetable that takes more time to cook first followed by the other.(Beans,Peas,Capsicum, Carrot,Cabbage)
7.Add pepper powder and salt each time you add vegetable and saute well.
8.When the vegetables are cooked add cooled rice, mix and heat it for a while.Taste test and add pepper powder and salt if required.
9.Fried rice is ready to serve.

Tip:
1.Pepper is the main ingredient in this recipe.Add pepper and salt each time you add a vegetable.Do not add all the vegetables together.Add them in a such a way that finally fried rice has everything in the same texture.
2.You can add green chillies.But I prefer only pepper powder
3.A pinch of agenomoto or MSG can be added with pepper and salt. It enhances the taste. Better to avoid it as it is not healthy.
4.Cutting the vegetables into thin slices lengthwise brings a good taste to the recipe.
