A quick Indian-style fried rice made with soya chunks and veggies. Ready in minutes and perfect for using up leftover rice.
- 1 ½ cups 200 g cooked basmati rice (90% cooked)
- ⅓ cup soya chunks (soaked and water squeezed out)
- ⅓ cup bell pepper (sliced)
- ¼ cup carrot (sliced)
- ⅓ cup cabbage (sliced)
- ¼ cup onion (sliced)
- 1 green chilli (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon soya sauce
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt to taste
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan. Add sliced onion and chopped green chilli and saute for a few seconds.
Add sliced bell pepper, carrot, and cabbage. Saute for about 2 minutes, keeping them a bit crisp.
Add the 90% cooked basmati rice and soaked soya chunks. Add soya sauce, black pepper, and salt to taste.
Stir and mix everything well so it is coated evenly.
Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring gently. Turn off the heat and serve warm.
- Use 90% cooked rice, not full cooked, for the right texture.
- Squeeze the water out of the soya chunks well.
- Prep and chop everything before you start cooking.
