Schezwan Fried Rice (Veg)

Schezwan Fried Rice (Veg)

Schezwan Fried Rice is one of the popular Indo-Chinese main dish in India. This one is Indian version of fried rice so definitely it is going to be hot.

Schezwan or Sichuan is the peppercorns commonly used in Chinese, Tibetan and Nepali cuisines. These peppercorns give citric flavor to the dish. But in India is very difficult to find these peppercorns in most of the places so they invented their version of Schezwan sauce using local dried red chilies, lots of garlic and dash of vinegar.

In this recipe I used homemade Schezwan sauce, but this sauce is also available in store bottles. You can find homemade Schezwan sauce recipe on my blog here.
