Egg fried rice is one of those really easy and simple recipes that requires a couple of ingredients and just a few minutes . This recipe is similar to that of veg fried rice. Using star anise, mace and garlic add great flavours to the rice that we often find in restaurant style rice . You can even use just vinegar in place of soy sauce. You can even add chilli or tomato sauce as desired. One very important thing to keep in mind is that the rice should be 'al dente' . The rice should be firm and not mushy. This is the important criteria for any fried rice recipe.

Steps

40 minutes

1

Boil water with a pinch of salt. Add rice and cook them 'al dente'. This is a very important criteria. Too crucial actually.
2

Drain and set aside. Cut all the veggies up and set them aside too until later use.
3

Heat oil in a pan. Add the star anise, mace and chopped garlic. Let the garlic turn brown in colour on a high flame for 3-4 minutes. Next add the chopped veggies, whites of spring onions and mix well again. Reduce the flame to low.
4

After a minute, add in soy sauce, pepper powder and vinegar and mix again. Let it simmer for a minute. And finally set them aside. It's crucial that the veggies maintain their crunch.
5

FOR THE EGG SCRAMBLE :
Heat oil in a pan. Crack the eggs in a bowl. Whisk them with pepper powder and salt. Add them to the pan and scramble till thoroughly cooked.
6

FOR THE EGG FRIED RICE-
Add in the Veggies and the Eggs to the cooked rice. Mix with light hands and fluff up the Rice carefully
7

Garnish it with Spring Onions. Serve hot with any Manchurian dish. I served with Chicken Manchurian. You can even serve with any side dish of your choice.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
