When you say cook chicken and prawns and egg,what do you mean?i mean how are we supposed to cook?if you added that too it’d be a great help.
Hi Neethu,
I usually boil the chicken with salt & pepper, stir fry the prawns with salt & pepper and scramble the eggs with salt & pepper. Hope this helps..
Cheers

Hi Saritha,
Welcome to MM :)

Maria
Hi Vani,
Thank you so much :)
Which method you use for cooking rice, do you strain excess water or you let the water dry completely?
Also try using a deep and wide vessel while cooking rice, so that there is enough space, for the rice to expand while cooking.
Cheers
Maria
Hi maria,
Thanks a ton for d reply.. I usually let d water dry completely…
Hi Vani,
You are welcome :)
Try cooking the rice by draining the excess water, also add a bit of lemon juice while cooking. Hope this helps..
Cheers

My son has egg allergy. Any advise on how to get the fried rice taste without using egg?

Hi Sherin,
Good to know that you liked this fried rice. Thanks for trying & also for the comment :)

Mariakuttyyeh..
Yea Paulas recipes are good but very fattening & rich also.
My suggestion.. if trying her recipes… try to cut the amount of fat & sugar. Everybody mostly here in U.S agrees her recipes are yummy, but little unhealthy also :)
Maria,
I tried this recipe and it came out well. I made it in a wok and that kind of helps the rice to fry better and get incorporated with the other ingredients in a cohesive manner. I also added Chinese chilly paste as my husband likes it really hot. There’s a particular sauce called the Sriracha sauce thats extremely spicy but gives a good Chinese flavor. Not sure if you get it in Bahrain but its available in the US.
Also if you check out paula deen’s recipes on foodnetwork.com, her cakes and desserts are usually very yummy.
Hi Liz,
Thanks for trying out the recipe dear :)
I’m hearing about the Sriracha sauce for the first time, I will check whether its available here during my next grocery shopping. Thanks for the info.
Yep, I’ve seen some of the recipes of Paula Deen but I havent tried any. Looks like I should :)
Cheers
Maria
It very tasty………… I loved it very much. Thank you for the recipe…………

Divs, thanks di for trying out this. Garnishing with celery is a good idea :)
Ammu, thanks again dear for trying out. am happy that you are trying out diff recipes on this blog and giving me regular feedback, it means a lot to me :). I will update the recipe about the cooked prawns & chicken.
I cooked prawns n chicken with pepper n salt coz i forgot to see ur comments section beforehand as i was in a hurry..but the results were good..this looked n tasted like the rice we get from chinese restaurents n it was sooo easy to make..prethesh was like u didnt take much effort!!
di,
I blindly followed your recipe this weekend…it was amazing….i garnished with celery…try that..and apart from carrot and peas…i also added beans…
I cooked chicken and prawns with a pinch of salt only. I didnt add any masala.
when you cook the chicken and prawns,do you put any masala in them or do you just cook them in plain water?
