Veg. Fried Rice

HE is a Chinese-Food Lover and I am not so good at making it. I also hate going to Chinese Restaurants because most of them stink horribly. So I had to learn to make it reasonably well and I am glad now I can make almost restaurant style fried rice. It makes a complete meal with soup and/or stir fried veggies. You can try same recipe with white rice, but I always preferred brown rice.

Serves 2-4

Preparation Time: 20 Minute + soaking time

Cooking Time: 30 Minute

Ingredients

1.5 cup brown rice

1 tbsp olive oil

2-3 tender leaves of cabbage

2-3 cloves of garlic

Procedure

1. Wash and soak rice for 1.5 to 2 hour and pressure cook it with 1.5 cup of water

2. Thinly sliced all veggies and microwave beans, carrots and green pepper in a steam bag for about 5 minutes or until they are half cooked

3. Heat oil in skillet, add garlic and onions

4. Stir until onions become translucent and then add remaining veggies
