Chinese Chicken Fried Rice

k

The harmonious integration of color, taste, and appearance made Chinese Cuisine popular all over the world. The choice of various ingredients, seasonings and the heating mechanism used in chinese cooking gives such a great perfection to all the senses.People in different countries add their own flavours and spices to Chinese food to customize it to their own taste. Fried rice ,with Gobi Manchurian as its side,is one of the tastiest and popular dishes in Indo-Chinese menu.I’ve got a real passion towards Chinese dishes,whatever it be.This is my favourite recipe of Chinese Fried rice and it’s always been a hit in my home.

Its very first chinese dish for the blog.. though i make it now and then didnt get time to take step wise pictures.
And this is purely chinese and not the Indo-chinese dish available in our Indian restaurants and road side shops. No chillis or garam masala 🙂
I tried my best to find some authentic chinese dishes from books and other blogs and finally came up with this fried rice. Though i missed one main ingredient Oyster sauce
