Bread Pizza | How to make Bread Pizza Indian Style


Bread Pizza


Bread Pizza Recipe - After my Cheese Chilli Toast, my kids started asking me some varieties in Bread Recipes. So tried this Simple Bread Pizza and my kids loved the taste and asked me to do one more time in the night also 😊. It is very simple and tastes great with simple ingredients at home. But you know, I tried only 6 pieces and I didn't even get a single bite 😏. My kids were standing near the oven and they were now and then checking whether it got cooked 😜. Somehow I managed to click the pictures in a hurry. So let's go to the Bread Pizza Recipe now.

Notes:
1. Any bread can be used for this. But milk bread tastes better. 
2. Other veggies like corn, chopped broccoli can also be added. 
3. I used mozzarella cheese. You can use cheddar cheese also. 
4. I sprinkled little pepper before serving. You can serve with chilli flakes and Parmesan cheese also. 
5. Do not keep the bread too long after applying tomato sauce as it may become soggy. If you have pizza sauce you can use that also. 
6. Adding Italian herbs gives authentic taste for the bread pizza. But it's purely optional.

Try this Bread Pizza and let me know how it turned to you.

Veg fried rice | How to make Vegetable Fried Rice

vegetable fried rice

Vegetable Fried Rice is one of my favorite rice dish in any Chinese restaurant. Even in my office canteen I used to order veg fried rice if i forget to pack my lunch. I knowingly forget to get this fried rice 😜 sometimes. Mostly they used to prepare the veg fried rice with egg. But I used to tell them to prepare only with vegetables and sprouts. I felt very tried to explain to them on first time. But later they used to prepare by themselves when they see me ☺️☺️. I prepared Chilli chicken as the side dish for this fried rice. Ok now let's go to the recipe of vegetable fried rice.

Veg Fried Rice

Preparation time: 15 min | Cook Time: 15 min | Serves: 4
Recipe Category: Main | Recipe Cuisine: Indian


Ingredients
Vegetables used - any crunchy veggies works well. (Carrot, bell peppers, spring onions, bean sprouts, cabbage, etc)
Olive oil - 2 tbsp
Rice - 2 cups (Any long grained rice looks and tastes better)
Garlic - 1 tbsp (finely chopped)
Soya sauce - 2 to 3 tsp (adjust according to your taste)
Vinegar - 1 tbsp
Salt - as per taste 
Sugar - 1 tsp (optional)
MSG/ajinomoto - 2 pinch (optional)
Pepper powder - 1/5 tsp
Spring onions - 3 tbsp
Star anise - 1 (optional)
Mace - 1 (optional)



Method 

1. Wash the vegetables and keep it ready. Cook the rice with a pinch of salt and star anise and mace to 75%. Do not use more spices.

2. Filter out the water and cool down the rice as we want a grainy texture and not a mushy rice.

3. Now in a large skillet, add oil and when hot, add garlic. Fry for a minute. Add the vegetables and fry them in high flame.

4. Add sugar, so as to keep the colour of the veggies. Finally add the bell peppers as we want to retain the crunchiness of the capsicum.

5. Add the pepper powder and the msg. Fry for a minute. Add the soya sauce and vinegar and salt for Chinese Style fried rice and add only vinegar and salt form the Indian style veg fried rice. (This tip I took from here).  Keep frying the vegetables.

6. Add the rice and mix it. Check for the salt now as the soya sauce already contains the salt. If less add the salt. Keep frying the rice too in high flame so that we get the smoky flavor in the rice which is what we want in the fried rice. 

7. Yummy and tasty Vegetable Fried Rice is ready. 

8. Garnish with spring onions and serve it. 




Notes:
1. For fried rice any crunchy vegetables suits well. You can add cauliflower, broccoli, bean sprouts etc.,
2. After adding rice, you should fry the rice in high flame so only we get the perfect fried rice. 
3. I did frying of the rice in batches as my skillet is small.
4. Try to use the light soya sauce as dark soya sauce change the color of the rice. 
5. Soya sauce already contains salt so check before adding salt.
