Ingredients
2 cups cooked basmati rice
2 tablespoons oil (vegetable or sesame)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, bell peppers, peas, and beans), finely chopped
1/2 cup cabbage, shredded
1/2 cup spring onions, chopped (green and white parts separated)
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch piece ginger, minced
2-3 tablespoons Winn Schezwan Chattak chutney
2 tablespoons Winn Dark Soya sauce
1 tablespoon Winn Chilli Vinegar
Salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
PREPARE THE RICE:
- If using freshly cooked rice, spread it out on a plate and let it cool completely. This helps in avoiding clumps and ensures that the grains remain separate while frying.
HEAT THE OIL:
- In a large wok or frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
SAUTÉ AROMATICS
- Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn translucent.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger and cook for another minute until fragrant.
COOK THE VEGETABLES:
- Add the mixed vegetables and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
- Add the shredded cabbage and the white parts of the spring onions. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes.
INCORPORATE THE WINN SCHEZWAN CHATTAK CHUTNEY
- Push the vegetables to one side of the wok and add the Winn Schezwan Chattak chutney to the other side.
- Let it cook for 30 seconds to release its flavors, then mix everything together.
SEASON & ADD RICE:
- Pour in the Winn Dark Soya sauce and Winn Chilli Vinegar. Mix well.
- Add the cooked rice to the wok. Toss everything together gently to ensure the rice is evenly coated with the sauce and vegetables.
FINAL TOUCHES:
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Add the green parts of the spring onions and give a final toss.
SERVE:
- Serve hot, garnished with additional spring onions or a sprinkle of sesame seeds if desired.
