Schezwan Fried Rice | How to make Schezwan Fried Rice

For today's recipe, I referred to the handy cookbook that was handed out during a Schezwan Cuisine Festival.

Kung Po Chicken was from the same book and as I had said we were keen on making all of the dishes listed in that book. Everything that we have tried now, has turned out great. Enjoy this fried rice with Schezwan sauce.

I enjoy all types of fried rice and it makes a great lunch recipe. All fried rice turns best with a day's old rice, so you have all the reasons to enjoy a feast with leftover rice. I made this for my lunch during a weekend when I had prepared nonveg for the rest. It's quite easy to make just for a person when you have the Schezwan sauce handy.

The day has been very pleasant with a chill climate, it drizzled for a while, yet knowing some of the states seem to be having heavy rains wish it was sent here.

And I could have enjoyed a shower with a hot bowl of this rice!

Notes

If you want to get the smoky smell that is always associated with fried rice, slightly tilt the pan over the flame and drop few drops of oil and the veggies get burnt.
