Capsicum - ½ cup, chopped finely (used green and red capsicum)
Spring onions - ½ cup
Oil - 2 tbsp
Pepper powder - 1 tsp
Aginomoto - a pinch (optional)
Sugar - ½ tsp
Cooked rice – 2 cups
Salt - as required
Instructions
Cook basmati rice perfectly and fluffy. And keep it aside. Cut the veggies very finely so that it will cook easily in short period of time.
Heat a pan with oil, and when hot, add the clove and veggies with sugar and fry for two minutes or until its cooked. Make sure it is still crunchy. You don’t want mushy veggies.
Add pepper and aginomoto, spring onions and fry for a minute. Add the cooked rice and stir well and switch off.
Notes
1. You can try the same with left over rice by keeping it overnight in the fridge. 2. I had only black pepper handy, but you can use white pepper, it gives, more flavor. 3. You are adding sugar to retain its color.
