What is the biggest difference between authentic Chinese food and Indo-Chinese food? You guessed it right – it’s the spice level. Indians have to keep a lot of spices in their food, because that’s how we like it. No further justification given. So if we make fried rice at home then it should be spicy. But, if you are one of those people who like an extra dose of spice in everything they do, then this recipe is for you. This sizzling chili-garlic fried rice will taste like no other on your palate. Want to know more about it? read on.
We found this recipe video on YouTube channel ‘Ananya Banerjee’ and we were instantly delighted with it.
