Indo-China veg rice

boring eh?! the title?

Well.......apart from blogging and singing....cooking...yes cooking is my passion......i plan to open a restaurant later.....(big dreams!!!! i know i know!!!!)

I dedicate this recipe to all those road-side cheap chinesewalla of mumbai streets ;)(had been there this vacation...)

Well, it's not that great how they make it, but can't beat those masters, can we?! ;)

This is how I make it and really enjoy it, being so full of veggies.

Ofcourse, people closest to me, unsure about it, being so plain again.

I personally like my food a little on plain side.

To cut my lecture and woes short, here it is...
