Vegetable Fried Rice

 Ingredients

1 medium onion(chopped finely)
1/4 cup Beans(chopped finely)
1/2 cup carrots(julienned)
1/2 cup chopped green onions
2 cups cooked rice
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
2 pods of garlic
2 green chilli

2 tsp Oil

Smash the garlic and chili using a mortar and pestle. If you do not have a mortar, then you can cut the garlic and chili into fine pieces.

Heat oil in a large nonstick pan over high heat. Add the smashed garlic/chilli and fry for a few seconds and then add onion and fry until light brown. Now add Beans, Carrots and Green onions. Stir-fry until vegetables are tender. I have chopped the beans finely because beans normally takes a long time to cook.

Tip: The vegetables need not be completely cooked. They should only lose their raw taste.

Add Soy Sauce. Now mix the cooked rice and stir-fry on high heat for 2 minutes.Push rice mixture to sides of pan, forming hole in center. Add egg to center of pan, and let cook for few seconds.Mix the rice, and stir-fry until egg is cooked.

Tip: There is usually no need to add more salt as soy sauce usually contains lots of salt. If required you can add more salt.

Serve Hot.
