Spicy Healthy Zucchini Unfried Rice
- 3/4 th cup uncooked white rice ( yes the less the better).
- 1 onion.
- 3-4 tablespoons of ginger-garlic-green chilli paste(you could omit the chillis if you dont want it spicy).
- lots of chopped/diced/matchsticked veggies like green & yellow zucchini,carrot,green beans,tomato.
- 1 handful mung bean sprouts.
- 1 cup frozen green peas.
- freshly cracked pepper.
- 1 lemon.
- Soy sauce 2 tablespoons diluted with water 1:2 ratio(1 tablespoon soy sauce+2 tablespoons water,I dont wanna ingest a lot of salt thats why I diluted it).
1. I soaked the rice for an hour & then cooked it in a pressure cooker for 1-2 whistles...I got sticky rice today(even hough they look separate)Skip the soaking...
2. Now cut up all the veggies in the desired shape but keep them thin & not thick slices...Prepare the soy sauce dilution & keep aside...
3. First fry the onion with 1-2 teaspoons of water(water saute), try to get a golden color its easy if you are using a non-stick,but I used a steel casserole,so mine wasnt browned..then add the ginger garlic paste & saute it with the onions for some time...
4. Add the hardest veggies first like carrots saute it for some time & then add 3/4 of soy sauce & all other veggies except tomatoes & keep stir frying them on medium to high heat,once you stir-fried them to desired doneness,add the thawed green peas & tomatoes stir fry for a couple minutes..
5. Now add the rice & pepper,mix again,add the remaining soy sauce,mix well,turn off the gas...Add lemon juice & chopped green onions if you got them,I didnt have it...Serve it hot/warm on a bed of greens...
Variations: add oil of choice to the recipe & follow the same for fried Spicy Zucchini fried rice...
SO HOW'D IT GO?
