Chinese is one of the most favourite for most of us. I'm glad to share a couple of my chinese recipes with you all.
Fried rice Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 bowl of cooked basmati rice (cook the rice with some oil and also sprinkle one spn after cooking... this will help prevent rice from sticking), 5-6 green chillies slit,1 onion slit, 3-4 chopped beans, (some green peas also could be a good option). 3-4 chopped spring onions (for garnish), 2-3 eggs (scramled with salt and pepper) (optional). Salt to tate, ajinomotto and 1-1&1/2 spns coarse pepper and soya sauce.
Method:
In a wok heat some oil add green chillies, onions, beans, carrots and peas fry together for 2-4 mins. Cook with the lid on for another 1min. now add salt, ajinomotto, soya sauce. Remove from falme and add this mixture to the rice. Along with the mixture add pepper, srambled eggs & spring onions. Serve hot!
Oat Soup
The most popular way of consuming oats is by making an oat meal. But many of us dislike the very thought of an oat meal. So for those of you who do want to eat oats but in a delicious way here is a soup. Hope you enjoy it.
Oat soup recipe:
Ingredients:
Oats 2 cups, boiling water 2 cups. 1/2 spn chopped garlic.1 Spn salted butter (fat free can be used), 1 spn olive oil, 1 spn each of finely chopped peppers- green, red and yellow, 1 spn finely chopped carrots. 2spns chopped spring onions (for garnish).1/2 spn ajinomotto, Salt and pepper as per taste.
Method:
Soak the oats in boiling water for 15 mins.
Heat the vessel in which you are going to make the soup. Add olive oil, garlic, peppers and fry for 2 mins now add butter ,salt, ajinomotto and oats along with the water. add more water and boil for 5-10 mins until oats soak all the water keep stiring. Finally transfer to serving bowl and garnish with spring onions and pepper. Delicious and healthy soup is ready to eat.
Note:
This soup is best enjoyed with garlic bread. I have to used quick cook oats which cook faster.
