Indo Chinese Recipes

Vegetable Fried Rice and Manchurian Our family fav Indo Chinese dish. My brother always orders this for take out from a shop near our home and he enjoys this combo a lot wish I could parcel him some.Vegetable Fried rice taste similar to the Chinese one , I have posted a Indo Chinese version of fried rice already which is bit different from this fried rice. I made them white as we get in india and I made Cabbage Manchurian with gravy to accompany this colorful rice. You can also add carrot in them , i didn’t any carrot so skipped it. Spring onion and the ginger garlic flavor is very important to get the Chinese flavors in the dish so avoid skipping them. My H took this for his lunch today and his colleagues too tasted it, he said all enjoyed a lot. I  was the happiest person to hear that compliments. Even a small sign hmm yummy makes us very happy isn’t it , feels like what I have been working for is payed off. Ok coming to the recipe here is very famous combo meal which all our youngsters in Indian love them. I have made Manchurian in our school kitchen and the recipe is what I learned from school did a little tweaking though 🙂  My H doesn’t like to eat cauliflower at all and so I made cabbage manchurian instead. You can also add carrots, capsicums to the manchurian balls and make them as vegetable manchu. Trust me they are a heavenly combo no one can resist this.Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#45.
