- Method.
- Heat oil in a pan, when the oil is very hot, add garlic and ginger, saute for a few seconds.Then add beans and fry for a few seconds, followed by carrot, cabbage, capsicum and spring onion greens. (Add vegetables in the same order).
- All the vegetables should be sauteed on high flame and continuous stirring is necessary as we want the vegetables to be crunchy and not fully cooked.
- Add cooked rice, soya sauce, vinegar, needed salt and pepper. Mix well and serve hot.
- Note.
- The whole procedure should be done on high flames.
- Chopping the vegetables finely is very important.
- I did not add soya sauce as I prefer to have without it but you can add soya sauce according to your taste to make it more Chinese.
- Adding finely chopped mushrooms along with vegetables makes it even more delicious.
- Using olive oil adds more flavor but you can also use any refined oil. Buy Olive oil which is meant for cooking purpose.
