What is chilli coriander fried rice made off?
  1. What is  chilli coriander fried rice made off? chilli coriander fried rice is made from easily available ingredients in India like 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh red chillies, 1/2 cup finely chopped coriander (dhania), 3 1/2 cups cooked chinese rice (chawal) or long grained rice, 1 tbsp oil, 1 tbsp finely chopped garlic (lehsun), 1 tsp soy sauce and salt to taste.

Making long grained rice or cooked Chinese rice
  1. To cook the Chinese long-grained rice (or basmati rice), wash 1 cup of long-grained rice thoroughly under running water until you get clear water. The removal of starch from rice helps in getting separate grains after cooking. 
  2. Transfer in a deep bowl and soak in enough water for 30 minutes. 
  3. Drain with the help of a strainer and keep aside. 
  4. Boil 4 cups of water in a deep non-stick pan. 
  5. Add salt.
  6. Furthermore, add 1 tbsp of oil and mix well. 
  7. Add the rice to the boiling water and mix well. 
  8. Cook on a medium flame for 8 to 10 minutes or till the rice is 85% cooked, while stirring occasionally. 
  9. Strain it using a strainer and let the water drain out. This will give you around 3 cups after cooking. Do not overcook the rice or else they will turn soft and mushy. 
  10. Pour some cold water on the rice to stop further cooking. Let all the water from the rice drain out ensuring that the rice does not contain any moisture. 
  11. Add the remaining 1 tbsp of oil. This helps in preventing the rice from sticking together. 
  12. Toss the rice in it. Ensure each grain is coated well with oil. 
  13. Spread the cooked Chinese Rice on a flat surface or a big plate and allow it to cool for 1 to 2 hours. 
  14. Cover the Chinese Rice with another plate so, the grains don’t dry out. Use as required. 

Making chilli coriander fried rice

  4. Sauté on a high flame for a few seconds.
  5. Add 3 1/2 cups cooked chinese rice (chawal) or long grained basmati rice. See above details of step by step cooking of long grained rice. Each grain is nice and separate.

Good taste. Maybe 2 tbsp oil is better to prevent rice from sticking
