Schezwan fried rice recipe with step by step photos. Schezwan fried rice is one of the most loved dish of Indo-Chinese cuisine.
schezwan fried rice recipe
Schezwan fried rice gets its name from the use of schezwan sauce, which is used to flavor the fried rice. Schezwan sauce in turn is made using schezwan peppers authentically but here I have used the usual dried red chilies to make sauce for schezwan fried rice recipe.
Usually the veg fried rice we get in restaurants is a pale one that is very mildly spiced but this schezwan fried rice recipe is deep colored with bursting flavors and also quite spicy. I usually make schezwan fried rice following my friend’s recipe. Some times I also refer Sanjeev kapoor’s schezwan fried rice recipe for this schezwan fried  rice with few modifications. I have eliminated all the sauces like hot sauce,soy sauce as I felt schezwan sauce was more than enough to flavor the rice.
I tasted this schezwan fried rice recipe first in a friend’s place. I just loved the taste and flavor of this rice. For all these days I have tasted only very mildly spiced veg fried rice. Even fried rice in restaurants are mild in flavor and color. This schezwan fried rice was so spicy, loaded with vegetables and flavor was awesome. She served this schezwan fried rice with some sweet and chili vinegar. I made it a point to try this fried rice at home too. I took the recipe from her and made the flavorful schezwan sauce at home the next day. I stored the sauce in fridge for about a week and made schezwan fried rice recipe 3 times :). Try this schezwan fried rice recipe once and you will love it too. You can use the flavorful sauce in various schezwan recipes. It comes very handy.

To make schezwan fried rice recipe, you can use the usual vegetables that are used for making veg fried rice. I used carrots, baby corn, cabbage, sweet corn, beans, bell pepper etc. Speing onion whites are used instead of onions and spring onion greens are used for garnishing. You can make schezwan fried as spicy as you want. just use the required amount of sauce, even better if the sauce is made at home you can control the amount of chilies going in the making of sauce. Make sure the rice is non sticky and thoroughly cooled before adding to the vegetables.
