Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya

I really suck at telling recipes but here goes

For Egg Fried Rice I use my own desi style recipe:

2 -2.5 cups rice
1 medium onion, finely chopped
A medium potatoe peeled and cubes in small pieces.
half a cup spring onions
3/4th of a cup, shredded carrots
half a cup of peas
2 teaspoons of whole cumin seeds
Chicken stock or chicken cubes for that chickeny flavor.
soya sauce (splash of it needed before putting the rice on damm)

Recipe:

(Clean the rice and soak them in water)

(Throw a beaten egg or two in the frying pan with a tiny amount of oil and some salt and just cooked them like an omelette. Cut the cooked egg in small pieces.)

Fry the potatoes until they’re half cooked in a seperate pan with a lil oil. Set aside.
Add oil in a pot and fry onions slightly so that they turn into a light golden brown color. Add cumin seeds while frying.
After step 2, add 1 cup water and toss the peas in. Let the peas cook for about 10 mins so that they become soft.
Add 1-1.5 cups of water/stock. In case of water, add the chicken cubes. Add salt according to taste. Bring to a boil and add the rice.
When the water is almost dry, add the potatoes, spring onions, shredded carrots and the eggs. Splash some soya sauce. Then put on damm when water gets dry.
TADA!! Rice are done after 10 mins of damm.

For Manchurian:

I followed this recipe by Fauzias Kitchen. Very easy peasy.

I like how you garnished the keema, Sara. It's a very pretty presentation; I'm stealing this idea from you.
