Garnish and Serve
Replace eggs with 200g of crumbled paneer (Paneer Bhurji Fried Rice) or 250g of boneless, bite-sized chicken pieces (stir-fry chicken first, then proceed).
Add 1-2 teaspoons of Schezwan sauce or your favorite chili garlic paste along with the soy sauce for an extra kick of heat and flavor.
Incorporate 1/2 cup of other quick-cooking vegetables like mushrooms, baby corn, or French beans along with the carrots and capsicum.
Substitute basmati rice with quinoa or brown rice for a healthier, high-fiber alternative. Ensure the grains are cooked and completely cooled before using.

Yes, it can be a balanced and healthy meal. It provides a good mix of carbohydrates for energy, high-quality protein from eggs, and vitamins from vegetables. To make it healthier, you can use less oil, add more vegetables, and control the sodium by using low-sodium soy sauce.

The key is to use cold, day-old rice. The grains are drier and firmer, which prevents them from clumping together. Also, stir-frying on high heat helps to evaporate moisture quickly, keeping the grains separate.
Yes, you can make a vegan version by replacing the eggs with 200-250g of crumbled firm tofu. Sauté the tofu with the spices until it's slightly browned before adding it back to the rice.
