Schezwan Veg Fried Rice Recipe

Originating from china, schewan cuisine is characterised by bold flavours, brought about by pungent ingredients like garlic and chillies... Although the original recipe uses special sichuan peppers that have a lemony taste, in india schezwan sauce is prepared using red chillies, vinegar and garlic and it tastes quite authentic..

For those who love the lip smacking recipe of schzwan cuisine, here is a quick and easy fried rice with schezwan sauce... If you crave for something spicy for lunch or dinner, then schezwan fried rice is a good option...its is easy if you have schezwan sauce ready with you.. 

Here I use store bought schezwan sauce but you can use your own sauce recipe also... The amount of schezwan sauce to be added depends on your spice level according to your taste buds.. So please add as per your taste.. I usually keep the rice less spiced than what is served outside in the indo chinese food stalls and restaurants..
