The 10th of April was the birthday of my elder daughter. But due to the COVID-19 lockdown, we could not go outside to buy a birthday cake or to any restaurant to eat. So we decided to make one restaurant food at home. Actually we made 2 fast foods- fried rice and fried chicken. Today I will share the recipe of the fried rice only. In the next post, I will write about Fried Chicken. I know that many local guides here (especially female) know how to make fried rice. But, as it was the first time we made it at home so I cannot but share my experience here.
What you need:
Rice 250 grams
Oil 1 cup
Onion 2 TBS
Garlic 1 TBS
Ginger 1 TBS
Green Chili 4 pieces
Cumin ÂŊ TBS
Salt As you need
Capsicum 2 pieces (slice)
Carrot 1 Piece (slice)
Asparagus Bean ( āĻŦāĻ°āĻŦāĻāĻŋ) â 2 pieces
Cabbage sliced 1 Cup
Chicken Pieces 1 Cup
Eggs 2 Pieces
Soya Sauce 1 TBS
[TBS- Table Spoon]
[Vegetable slices]
How to make:
First boil the rice. Not full boil but 90%. Then keep the boiled rice in the refrigerator for 2 hours. And take out the rice from the refrigerator while you start the cooking, it will become normal gradually. Then make slices of the vegetables one by one. In the next step, pour oil in the frypan to fry the small pieces of chicken. Keep the fried pieces soft, do not fry for a long time. Then fry the eggs and make small pieces while frying. Keep fried chicken and fried eggs separately. After that pour oil in the pan, give the paste of spices in the hot oil and stir for one minute. After that put the Asparagus Bean in that pan first and stir for 3-4 minutes. Then add the carrot and stir for another 2 minutes. Then mix the cabbage and at the end the Capsicum pieces. Stir all the mixed vegetables for 2-3 minutes. Now add the cold boiled rice into the fried mixed vegetable mix them very well by stirring. Then use the fried eggs and the small pieces of fried chicken and stir for 3-4 minutes. After that use some soya sauce and stir for another two minutes and now it is ready. Not very difficult.

My birthday was on the 2nd of April, same month as your daughter. I asked a friend who knows how to make fried rice to make it for me and my guests. We went to the market together and bought all the things we thought we needed. I was hoping to kill two birds with one stone; To learn how to cook fried rice as my friend is helping me do it for my birthday.
Unfortunately for me, when we were done frying the chicken, we remembered some important stuff we forgot that was genuinely needed for my birthday celebration and I was asked to go and get it. Before I could make it back to the house, the cooking session was so over with.
Your tutorial on fried rice is coming just in time, 14 days after.
Say my good wishes to your daughter, we share the same birth month. Tell her the rest of her age will be the best of her days.

First of all, my daughter thanked you for your wishes to her @TerryGoodman . I read your comments to her and she liked it a lot. And I am sorry to hear your sad experience of trying to cook the fried rice. As I told in the post, we used all the ingredients that were available in our home. So escaped from missing anything. I hope the way we cooked it is easy and you can follow it to cook one more time. We will wait to see the photo and cooking experience from your next post.
