Schezuan Fried Rice

Chinese food is something that I have always fond of.. Once a while my craving increases and I end up trying to conjure up some thing good. But then I never manage to actually replicate the taste of Chinese street-food back home. This is was pretty close! Not a bad idea to try.....



For the Schezuan vegetables

Mixed vegetables fresh 2 cups
Chilly flakes 2 pinches
Soy sauce 1 tbsp
Sesame seeds toasted 1 tsp
Salt
Vegetable oil 3 tbsp
Tomato Sauce 2 tbsp
Garlic chopped 3 cloves

Method

Heat oil in a wok to high, the highest possible. Throw in the vegetables, chilly flakes and garlic. Keep stirring for 2 minutes. Quickly throw in the remaining ingredients and stir till the vegetables are crisp tender another 4 minutes. Turn it off heat. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds. Serve with fried rice.
